Default What do you know about ET?

I have this tenative diagnosis of ET. The weird thing is my symptoms come and go. I have had nearly two weeks with no tremor. Is this typical? I had tremor for months prior. I am going for a second opinion soon, but since I am asymptomatic I don't know if I should.

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.
