Essential Tremor

Post a new topicby cojebaby on Tue Nov 20, 2007 1:48 pm

My husband is 79 and for about 2 months I've noticed his tongue and lower lip and jaw constantly moving. We told the doctor, and he just said it was "tremors" Started looking it up on internet, and sounds like Essential Tremors Do they get worse Don't know what to expect Doctor didn't seem concerned. Is there anything that can be done? He's really worried THsnks for any info.

The cavalier attitude of doctors always surprises me. I suggest that your husband see a neurologist to get an accurate assessment.
