Thank you again Olsen

Check out the advocacy site for Essential Tremor patients - Tremor Action Network and scroll down until you get to the Movement Disorder Society info on the home page. Frankly, I don't think stats are known on this disorder as well and increasingly in the research I see it linked to Parkinsonism-that is it may be a continuum kind of thing. I was diagnosed with ET six years prior to my PD 'upgrade'- when it comes to tremor I am atypical for both disorders. Seems I could be a poster child for the yet undiscovered "shaky freak of nature syndrome"?
Oh, and check out their survey- they are starting to collect data on tremor, it looks like.
