Yes, she has considered another med - I can't take propranolol due to my low heart rate and asthma. Cogentin gave me a terrible headache- I don't know if it would have gone away but I couldn't even think, which was worse than the tremors anyway. Are there other options? I wouldn't mind adding another med.
