Hi Evonne - I had essential tremor since I was 17. I'm now 83, so it's been a long haul! in 1990, I had a deep brain stimulator put in place for my right side at the Rochester Mayo hospital with miraculous results. Ten years later I another installed for my left side which took care of head wobbles. If you have more questions about this procedure, do ask!! I'll get back to you (if I can find this page again!!
