    I don't have problems falling asleep or staying asleep. But when I wake up....oh boy....my shakes are off the charts in the morning. Then tend to balance themselves out after an hour or two.

      Have you been tested for sleep apnea? It seems when you wake up with the tremors it's related to sleep apnea and you need to be tested for that to see if you have it. I have terrible tremors since I stopped using my CPAP machine.

    What about talking during sleep or grinding the teeth during sleep? Are these REM sleep disorders? Are they indicators of a possibility of getting ET or Parkinson's later in life?

    Has anyone had the head tremors while sleeping but then when it wakes you up the tremor stops? Nobody can help me or understand why this happens. The head tremors are only when I sleep but they stop upon waking. It’s so strange.

    The DBS Committee meets today! After months of testing and waiting (thanks to COVId19) I will finally find out if I’m to be offered a chance to normalize my life. Unfortunately, I was also just diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis that muse be addressed. It’s going to be a long day and unfortunately last night was interrupted by my husband and his CPAP mask that doesn’t function correctly! Thanks VA! UGH. Your lectures have been very informative and empowering. Keep it up!

    Can you be my doctor?😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I have sooooooo many complicated conditions/diseases/disorders/syndrome and I'm exhausted from my loooooong medical journey. I need a doctor or group of doctors to look at and listen to ALLLLLLL of me. I can't go on living the life I have, as of now. I have, I believe, a good knowledge of the body due to personal experiences, studying, and research. I need someone to look at my medical history, listen to me, ask me questions, and let me ask questions. I just found you last night and I've watched many videos and I appreciate you so much. It is impossible to know everything especially in today's medical field being so specialized. I have over 20 specialists and it's disturbing when I ask if such and such could be causing,contributing, or related to such and such and they either say "no" or blow you off cuz they don't know. I love that you research and continue to learn. Cuz after all, " The leg bone is connected to the knee bone."

    I have ET and my sleep is interrupted 3 to 4 times each night when I need to urinate due to an enlarged prostate. I'm a fit 72 year old with a youthfull attitude keen to 'cure' my ET which my GP indicated is not curable. I'm right handed and have trained use my left hand to handle a coffee cup or a beer, I shave using two hands. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. ☘

    Hi Dr,
    I do have obstructive sleep apnea. I stopped my sleep therapy for several months because I started having ear ringing and I wanted to rule out that being a cause.
    As months passed I started having vibrations in my body that then became tremor feelings. I just restarted my sleep therapy and within the first night my tremors were pretty much gone.
    My second went well too.
    Can you tell me how it’s all connected and if my sleep apnea is most likely the cause of the tremors🙏🏻 Thank you so much

    Ok so I have both kinds of insomnia. Also I sleep "walk" even though mostly I will stay in bed. But I have tremors every night or almost every night. I'm 36 and don't know what it could be. I have a camera on me because of my sleep walking. I have been trying to figure out what I was doing during sleep. I woke up with a lighter in my hand one time. Woke up scratching my thighs standing in the bathroom another time.i would love to have sleep studies but can not afford them

    My tongue shakes and twitches occasionally . I bite my tongue it’s awful. Is that part of my ET. My head shakes badly and now the trunk of my body. My short term memory is bad. I’m 56 I’ve had it since age 6 after eating sprayed potatoes with pesticide. I thought of taking L-Theanine 250mg but am afraid of interacting with other natural remedies . Saw palmetto for my hair loss, magnesium, omega 3.
