Chloe shares her experience of living with essential tremor 

hi im Chris I've had essential tremors since I was 6 years old I'm now 39 you give hope and encouragement to all of us thank you

Hey, Chloe! I don't know if you remember me from some of your German classes at Uni, but hope you're well! Just wanted to say that I think it's fab that you're speaking out and talking more about your essential tremor and I have a lot of admiration for that! Keep doing what you're doing, and don't let it stop you from achieving all you dreams and wishes! Und ich hoffe auch, dass deine Zeit in Deutschland Spaß gemacht hat! Take care, girl! :) P.S. And if it's any consolation, I barely even noticed your tremor!

I had ET since my 20th. At 66 it got so worse that drinking from a cup or glass was extremely difficult since my hands were shaking severely. I also developed a head tremor over the years. I tried six types of medication but they didn't solve the problem. So in 2021 I underwent the DBS operation. I explained why in a video. Two weeks after the operation I made another video. The videos are not sponsored in any way.

I noticed that my son starting having them in middle school. We were told that they are hereditary but we do not know of anyone in the family who has them. Does anyone in Chloe's family have them?

Even I have tremors since my childhood

Get tested for a vitamin B12 deficiency.
