    My essential tremor is greatly exasperated by anxiety, I have developed severe social anxiety because of it. I shake from head to toe with even the smallest amount of anxiety and it has caused me to avoid everything. I am currently off work on mental health leave and I feel at this point I don't know if I can ever go back. I take metoprolol(gave up propranolol because it caused hair loss). Also, the doctor has prescribed me lexapro, which so far is doing nothing for my anxiety, and it's making my tremors worse.

      Not quite. Although people with essential tremour will have exacerbated symptoms when anxious. If you have excessive tremour during anxiety, you may have it.

    Primidone worked wonderfully well for me at pediatric dose level. But I did develop a little tolerance to the drug after about 10 days. After a month, it is still about 80% effective.

      Early onset tremors (in 8-9 grade of age) is often (but not always) familial essential tremor that often run in families. ask someone who knew family members very well.

    • @DanishBhatti_MD
      @DanishBhatti_MD  Před 2 měsíci

      For mild tremors, treatment is not often needed. usually the worsening is related to stress of situations and reducing or calming stress can help. for unavoidable stressful situations, sometimes as needed medications are enough such as propranolol. A good neurologist assessment would be the best place to start. there are treatable causes for tremors that can be cured (sometimes as simple as a vitamin deficiency like B12 but others too or simple endocrine (hormone) deficiencies).

    You need to pronounce the words more clearly or spell them out. I"m not sure I got any of them right. Propranolol came up on my screen so i know I got it wrong. The other two are still a mystery. Somebody in the comments mentions Primidone. Is that correct?
