Hi there,

Thanks for your query.

Further information is required, such as, your age, gender, duration of using Zeldox and, duration of your shaking symptoms.

However, Extra-pyrimadal symptoms occur while an individual is taking Zeldox. Appearance of these symptoms one year after stopping the drug, is highly unlikely due to Zeldox.

It is therefore, most likely Stage II of Parkinson's disease (provided you are more than 60 years old).

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE ALL doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Take care
