My ET never really goes away completely, but it does disappear to the point that I feel others do not see me shake. I can still feel it in there though. Then there are times that it gets so bad that no amount of Propranolol will stop it. This is particularly true if I am stressed about something, or when I get angry. It is like a switch is clicked on.

It is a puzzle, I do not understand why this tremor comes and goes. This happened once before, the tremor went away for about 2 months. Otherwise it is daily and has been going on for a few years.

First checked out for seizure, given antianxiety pills. Went to another Dr who suggested Parkinsons and now another says possible ET.


Thanks to anyone who can offer some stories.
