If I get nervous I get them even worse but the people in my life know what's going on and accept it. Just wanted to tell you 'we are not alone sweetgirl' .

Oh wow Kat!!!!! You are so precious to post here and brave!!!!! *Hugs you so tight.

Do you have essential tremors? Is it in your family? Do you take anything for it? Is it just in your head? (lol, meaning is it just your head that shakes) Have you heard about this new treatment? (see my original post)

Doesn't it hurt your feelings when people say things? And the thing is, it's not their fault. They don't know it's a disease. Just today i was at a patients house looking over their hospital records and the guy says "OMG it's not good is it, your shaking your head no". Bless his heart, i scared him to death.

Usually, i just say i have the same thing Katheryn Hepburn had and they "get it".

How do you explain it to people? If this is too many questions, pm me. I sorta ramble and i get fascinated when i find someone who has this. It is so very rare!!!!
