Hello @larias1955, and welcome to the PD support group on Mayo Connect. From your post, it sounds like PD is a recent diagnosis for you. Is my understanding correct?

You ask how to deal with anxiety related to PD. The best way to relieve anxiety is to be as proactive as possible. My suggestion would be to have an evaluation by a movement disorder specialist who can suggest medications to control the most troubling symptoms. There is also specific physical therapy that can reduce PD symptoms.

I look forward to hearing from you again. Please share what you have done so far to treat your PD symptoms.
