Default Not Essential Tremor.

My husband's Primary physician (G.P)insisted for 18 months that my husband had E.T and we had to pay to see a neurologist who specialised in movement disorders for a diagnoses that is how tremor dominant he is.There are other signs which the G.P did not pick up.He is on Requip 4mg, 4mg 4mg 1mg and supplements provided by ourselves.The tremor is still there and quite pronounced on occassions but he is as yet still able to do all activities he enjoys and we count our blessing.We have approached the neurologist about medication that would target the tremor as he has to stand in front of the public quite often but we have not had anything suggested.We just now think that when people can see he is competent at what he does if they are concerned about his tremor that is their problem.We count our blessing.
