Hi @johnjames

I just now noticed your post about internal anxiety. Yes, I have heard of it as well! I've been part of Parkinson's support groups where many folks have talked about his internal shakiness. Often, their doctors have attributed this symptom to anxiety (not being aware that it is a symptom of PD) and given them anti-anxiety meds which have caused more problems. As many of us know, anti-anxiety drugs cause PD patients to have worse symptoms.

As Colleen, @colleenyoung mentioned I think this would be a great discussion topic for the Parkinson's discussion group. I hope you will offer your comments about it and share what you have learned about these internal spasms and what treatments have helped you.

You mentioned that your doctor teaches/speaks online. Is it possible to give us the website where we can find this information or is this just for his own patients?
