Re: Vibrations in the head


ATTN: Gary Lisac

In your posting you didn't state whether your friend was taking any
medications for his early Parkinson's.  Could he by chance be taking
Artane or Cogentine?  My neurologist put me on Artane for two years when
I was first diagnosed and I experienced a *vibrating* sensation in my
head which was most disturbing.  I also had some tingling sensations
throughout my body and head and would get the *chills* on just one side
of my body.  I would also occasionally get pain in the side of my head
(fleeting sharp pain - not like a headache (although I may have had
headaches too but I don't remember that like I do these other weird
things.)  I was so glad to get off Artane when my doctor reluctantly
said he would start me on Sinemet.

I hope this is helpful, Gary.
