  • Essential tremor is the most common cause of tremor affecting 7-10 million people in the United States. Although it can start at any age, it is most common in people between the ages of 40 and 50.
    We will meet with a movement disorder specialist who discusses the unmet needs in the treatment of ET and the currently ongoing development of precision medicines developed with ET in mind.
    Plus, we’ll hear from Jean, who has been living with essential tremor for over 30 years, and how she is determined to live outside of the shadows and advocate for others.

    At 75 my tremor continues to increase. I have had ET since early childhood. It involves both hands, sometimes legs, and internal tremors as well. A beta blocker helps, but no longer gives me full control. Other drugs are a no. I refuse to quit doing things that I love so adaptive devices are my friend.

    There is essential tremor and essential tremor. I have it, but it is mild. My cursive has deteriorated to the point that I print nearly everything. And I struggle getting food from plate to mouth with a fork. Other than that, I don't have a problem. Others are crippled by ET.

    CBD keeps mine under control! I have a yes and no head tremor. And CBD takes it away. I just vape a small amount daily.

    I've had essential tremor since I was a teenager... am now 66. It is worsening but I can still feed myself and other ADLs. It's a struggle. I have it in my hands and head. I also have stenosis in my neck which I think is a source of exacerbation.
