When I do get to the point where I am shaking, I have found that taking a hot bath with chamomile bodywash helps. I have no clue why. My doctor told me that limiting carbs and sugar would help prevent attacks, although I don't recall why. I do feel really anxious when I eat any junk food, so it could be true.
If your head shakes, I recommend laying down in bed with a pillow behind your head when at attack starts. Turn off all the lights and do your best to relax. Maybe having a plush pillow beneath your head will help minimize the impact of some of the shaking? I am not a doctor, though, so I couldn't really tell you. Just throwing out ideas.

Thank you for responding!

I will keep your tips in mind for my next attack. I know curcumin is great in so many ways and I have been wanting to take it, I have just been a little worried about the blood thinning effect it has, maybe that would be bad if there is some bleeding going on in the head or appearing after a new concussion..? If shaking causes a new concussion maybe there could be bleeding involved, I don't know what the risks are so it scares me. What dose of curcumin have you been taking?
