    • About Me

      I have had Essential Tremor for over 20 years. Over the years it has gotten considerably worse to the point that I am almost helpless. I am considering Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery but informed by Shands Hospital, FL. that I could come out of the surgery slurring my words, some memory loss and trouble walking. Very scary to me. I notice on this site the holistic approach and need some insight on both and experience on either. The surgery is very frightening to me frankly. Thanking you in advance for your trouble.
