Chat-bitch, moan and groan, vent.

Come here to express your concerns about anything and everything.

So this morning I was feeling sorry for myself.  It was my worse night yet with this.  A glimpse of my future? 

When I first started shaking three things went through my head.  Parkinsons, MS or a brain tumor.

Both my mother and her mother had brain tumors.  My mom died in 1982 and my grandma in 2000.  This scares the crap out of me.

Hello Everyone!

My name is Michelle and I am so happy to find this group!  I have had ongoing, undiagnosed, tremors.  I have been through a series of tests but still no concrete answer.  My tremors are present all the time but at times are severe.  The only thing that has been helpful is Topomax, but it only lessens the severity.  The "big" things have been ruled out, but it is so scary when you don't know WHY!  I have gone from an extremely healthy person to someone with a list of doctors on speed dial and a cabinet full of meds!  All I want is to get my health back and get fit again!  I hope to gain some much needed support here.  Also, I am the mother of a special needs child (Asperger's Syndrome) if anyone can relate! 

Hello Michelle and welcome to our group.

You are right about it is so scary when you don't know why.

My first system was an electric shock that went through my left hand.  My hand just started to shake.  This was last March.  I thought that it was odd, but didn't think to much about it.  Over the next few months it continued and my doctor told me that it was just stress.  I have been stressed before and it never had that effect on me.

Aspergers Syndrome I have only seen in docu's on TV.  You have to be under constant stress worring about your child.

Having a hard time today.  Not sure why but about an hour ago my whole body just started shaking.  I am very close to tears right now because I am feeling very frustrated and alone right now.
