@a.jayleecholopray5956 2 года назад

It breaks my heart to see this video of Judy. I started suffering with my condition since I was 18 years old in Africa. I didn’t know it was a condition, my doctors at the time told me I took in too much Pop or caffeine , so I stopped drinking caffeinated drinks but it continue to this day. As I got older my penmanship began to change as though I haven’t been to school. I now live in the USA but still have not gotten a direct diagnosis. I completed the phlebotomy training my instructor didn’t tell me graduate she didn’t tell me I wouldn’t graduate till the end of exams. My heart broke. She told me to get treatment and held on to my certificate.

@onlookerofthings6029 3 года назад

I've had benign essential tremors in my whole body besides my voice, eyelids and tongue since I was very young. They're all involuntary, shaking 24/7, but they never hurt at all. My mother was the same way, and I just assumed everyone shook a little until I met with a neurologist for seizures when I was in my teens. (I grew out of them, thankfully) She noticed them and I rarely thought much about them, so my mind was a bit blown when she said that most people don't have some form of a tremor. Mine in my face and neck aren't as strong as Jodi's but our hands before her procedure are pretty much identical. It does make using a mouse or touch pad, staplers, scissors, writing, putting on makeup, drinking, eating, and carrying full glasses or containers very, very frustrating but still possible. If I write really fast and hard for example, my handwriting's a lot more fluid. I've completely given up on trying to use scissors, touch pads and makeup however. Sorry this was long 😅 I just wanted to relate. I'm so glad the procedure went well!

I have it since I was 20 at that time it was only noticeable to those who pay attention to my hands for few minutes but now I am 41 and it is very noticeable by others while I try to sign papers and during stress or if I get nervous the shaking become so prominent, in my culture and environment this condition is taken as a sign of extreme weakness and people make fun of you behind your back.

@patrickmurphy3759 5 лет назад

ET is an extremely broad diagnosis used by doctors. I think there are multiple types of tremor being grouped together under the name ET. My tremor has been a problem for as long as i can remember but others develop them later in life, which i feel there is a difference of some sort. Treatment? well a quick fix is alcohol(and not pissed, just bit should do), but not a great long term solution and hard to explain to employers. I use custom made jigs to rest my hand or hold my tools. As for eating and drinking I use a no spill coffee cups for drinks, and I am sure you already know to stay away from flimsy paper plates at picnics.

@MorphhyQuuancy 5 лет назад

@@patrickmurphy3759 thank you. I know alcohol is take off my tremor but after the day (hangover) its making me worse. And I lose some weight and make some muscle my tremor is slightly decreased. Caffeine, bread, sugar (snacks) making me worse.

@Venm_Bte 4 года назад

There is medication! I have e.t and I am also 19. Ask your doctor for propranolol tablets it's what I take twice daily and it helps A LOT it will not get rid of the tremor entirely but definitely calms yourself down. Hope this helps (:

@@wavywave8852 I first started of with 40mg a day, 20mg in the morning 20mg at night but found that wasn't enough and now I take 80mg a day, 40mg morning and night. But it's honestly a pretty chill drug like you could take 3 a day if you really wanted to (I personally only take 3 if I'm nervous for something) the only symptoms of taking too much Propranolol is it slows your brain down (temporarily not long term)

What do you mean? I have a vocal tremor and ET in my hands (22yrs), and while mine isn’t as bad as hers, it doesn’t seem like her/my disability is as bad as your abhorrent writing disability and lack of character. Miscoordination of muscles seems to be understandable in today’s society. There’s no excuse, and unfortunately no treatment, for being a jerk. And, oh god, I wish there was a vaccine! Would save us a heck of a lot of grief, and eliminate a lot of foolishness! 😳😳
