Tremors

[Guest guest]

Hi, -

My experience with tremors is very similar to yours; I have more when I

feel weaker (and I would prefer not to have them). I have also wondered

whether they were caused by the meds or the disease itself.

Thanks,

Pat

Welcome to the club Ray. Your doc should really check for Parkinson's. Many

folks with Parkinson's were misdiagnosed with essential tremours early in the

disease.

That was my experience at first.

I found that operating my new laptiop with the finger pad on it can be really

interesting.

Yes, Dave, typing, using a mouse, balancing hand on keyboard, etc., can all be

'really interesting' when the tremors begin. Sometimes I just have to give up.

Luckily, or not so luckily, the worst of the tremor symptoms accompany large

flareups of both the ReA and the Fibromyalgia.

I've asked about Parkinson's before since some of my ancestors did have it. But

to date, the diagnosis has been 'probable essential tremors,' meaning they don't

know what it is either.

Hi ,

When I was at my worst with acute mercury poisoning, I had tremors in both

hands. Also, during the night, my legs would suddenly jump. They were one of the

first symptoms to disappear with the first round of chelation with DMSA.

Best wishes to you both.

Hi, I have a question about body tremors. My younger brother (age 22) who I

feel is Hg poisoned has been having them for awhile now and they are now getting

worse. Mostly his hands are affected, he sometimes has trouble keeping food on

a fork. People are starting to ask questions and it is really bothering him. I

just talked to him and told him my concerns. He was diagnosed diabetic

following a viral infection at age 4 1/2. We have a long history of autoimmune

issues including lupus, ADD and IBS. Asked him about the flu shot as my mother

is religious about getting the stupid things. He has gotten many of them, not

in the last 2 or 3 years but every year before that. I asked him about amalgams

and he has a couple.

Does anyone feel I may be onto something here? I told him I would send him some

information and links. I would appreciate any help! I have a ton of

information on mercury poisoning and chelation but I have only really read about

the tremors in Andy's book. Most of my belief is based on family history. I am

going to confirm he will do the hair test and then I will order it for him.

Thanks!!!

Hi Barb,

Are they like muscle spasms? I get those oftem myself. Not sure why.

Have figured it goes with the territory of back and neck pain. Maybe I

am mistaken.

Are they painful?

Take care,

Barb, it depends on what you refer to as tremors. Are they painful or more just a bother. You can get all kinds of things due to back and neck pain though. It all depends upon the level of they disc that are causing you problems. I get what I refer to a spasms when I am at rest my body jerks violently sometimes. Sometimes the spasms are lighter.

Hugs and Prayers, Babs

i looked something similar up or maybe the same thing. you can get muscle

spasms when your at the almost sleep stage due to certain pain meds. they

can get pretty noticeable.

Question: Are you referring to familial essential tremor? This is

inherited. If it is, then drinking alcohol helps it. From what I

understand from what my friend, who has this, has told me, it is from

the adrenal glands going into overdrive and secreting too much

hormone. My friend has beta blockers to take when in high anxiety

situations, when it is important not to have tremors like, for example,

giving the toast to the bride and groom at a wedding, when all eyes are

watching, and the hand is most likely to shake and spill the champagne

toast.

What a person gets older, the shaking becomes more exaggerated and can

interfere with one's life.

I have spoken to one tech support person who had this and whose friend

did 7-8 therapies and it worked. However, the friend was brand new,

and can not tell what exactly s/he did.

So, I, too, am waiting for guidance. In the meantime, looking at the

mind over matter, I have suggested to my friend to try the computer

program Wisdom Quest, which is a fun way to learn how to control your

breathing and relaxation.

For I saw on tv that for one type of tremor, they had an implant

available for the brain. I don't know if that was for the familial

tremor.

Will be interested to see what responses come up.

I had tremors when I upped my dose from 25 to 50 and they were quite

bad. If I would sit at the table with my elbow on the table and my

chin on my hand the tremor would be so bad that the muscles in my back

would cramp up. Mine passed completely in about a week but started to

ease up in 3 days.

It sounds adrenal to me. Try adding some Vit C, Magnesium, and Celtic Salt.

Does Iodoral cause hand tremors at all? I took two 12.5 mg thismorning & it is 3:32 now. I took 2 more just now & I believe it is toosoon for a side effect. I did do a lot of house work today, I haveFibro. as well. I know if I carry things with weight to it It couldcause it some as in the past does. But I am concerned about the Iodoral. My thyroid doesn't work at all & I take Synthyroid at present. I will be changing to Armour Fri.Many Thanks,Janette/Marie

+++Hi Nikki. Those symptoms are caused by toxins, and if you've ever had them

before your body will also retracing them while it is healing - see this

article: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal10.php

Scroll down to Healing Reactions Versus Disease Reactions in that article so you

feel more secure that you are progressing and not deteriorating when you get any

symptoms.

But also they can be die-off/detoxifying symptoms as described in this article:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal2.php

Also when the body is retracing there are detoxifying symptoms too.

Cheers, Bee

No Geri, not all people with CMT experience Tremors. In 1926 two doctors -

Roussey and Levy - first described tremors in a person with CMT. Hence the name

" Roussey Levy CMT " . (which means CMT with Tremors)

I just posted a link to general info on Tremors. Mine are the " essential " type.

I know I don't get anything like that but my DD does...so strange......

she is still battling cancer also do I wondered if it could have anything to do

with that.

Thanks
