We appreciate Dr. Jankovic's comments on our recently published article.1 Our findings suggest that reemergent tremor is fundamentally the same as resting tremor. In our cohort (n = 48), the average latency between movement and tremor reemergence was 15.9 seconds. The latency varied considerably (1 to >60 seconds) but was not associated with disease or tremor severity. Recent work suggests that reafference from voluntary movements may reset tremor,2 but other mechanisms may also apply.3
