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' .(f)

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!!!!

Not only are you brave, my friend, but strong mentally. It took strength to go with that brave to write and open yourself up here...I adore you :)

I did notice the head nod, but I didn't care because it is part of you. Look at is as character for the time being. When your doc is ready to rock n roll with you, we'll all be pulling for you on the sidelines.

Now, like June said, no more crying because you are loved for you :)

Belle,
They are staring at you because you are so beautiful.
Smooches,
Keri

it's people like you that help others who can't speak up. not that not speaking up is always a bad thing, ... it's just not every persons thing. some need a nudge. the way to finding cures and helping others, ... takes people like you. thank you.

i remember seeing the infomercial by lucinda basset, years ago, ... about panic attacks. i knew then that i wasn't alone. i later bought her book. she told me that i was special. i carry that with me always.

by posting, you will influence/affect in ways you'll never know. isn't that amazing!
