Familial tremors are very similar to essential tremors.
8 Clinical Conditions Associated with Tremors
Familial and Essential Tremor
Familial and essential tremors are the most common conditions associated with action tremor. In the familial, or hereditary form, several members of the same family are affected. This is a genetically heterogeneous condition, and more than one gene might be involved.
The non-familial form is referred to as essential tremor because it is not associated with any other neurological condition. The term ābenign essential tremorā has been used in reference to this tremor; however, this is misleading since the tremor can be very severe and disabling. The essential and the familial hereditary forms are similar in clinical presentation.
In some affected individuals the tremors start in infancy, however, more often they appear in the second and third decade of life and are most prevalent when a person is in his/her 60ās.
It is seen in both sexes with similar frequency.
Most often, the first signs of tremors are seen in the arms, usually in both of them.
The condition is chronic and, in many instances, progressive; as time goes by, other regions are involved including the head, neck, chin, and mouth.
The tremor in the arms interferes with many activities such as eating and drinking.
Other clinical manifestations might be a tremulous voice, a continuous head movement in a vertical āyes, yesā or horizontal āno, noā pattern.
The legs are rarely affected.
The tremor might be severe enough to result in functional disability.
Tremors increase with anxiety and stimulant drugs and may decrease with the ingestion of alcohol.
There is no diagnostic test that confirms the condition. The diagnosis is based on clinical findings. However some tests might be indicated to rule out other conditions.
My Grams had this also and it got worst as she grew older ,then she had dementia it s just a horrible thing to watch and it scares the shit out of me when I think about the future .
there are a few strains that have popped up (consistenty) in my research. please bear in mind, most of my research has been with alz/demā¦ the addition of parkinsons has been a new(ish) thing, so still digging away at that. thankfully, there has been a bit of crossover as some of the strains iām working with alz/dem also fall in with parkinsons.
so. that all being said, off the top of my head the crossover strains were:
kosher kush
bubba kush
amnesia haze
trainwreck
lavender haze
harlequin (a CBD strain)
again, we see heavily sedative/painkiller type kush strains and upbeat/enegetic/painkiller haze type strains.
nowā¦ have i been able to test any of these and watch for the tremors. no. but i did test one recently OFF the (parkinsons) list ācandylandā. it didnāt stop the tremors in her hands completely but it lessened them to a great degree. left hand had stopped, right hand still had slight tremor.
You are an important part of All That Is, you matter just as much as anyone else.
We are all the Universe experiencing itself, every experience counts and contributes to the whole,
even negative onesā¦ for they make the joyful expierences all the brighter!!!
The Amnesia haze helped here and there ,one day he d show me his hand was still and he could write his name legible but it wasn t consistent which was strange to me . I grew out 1 feminized plant so there wasn t enough to do or keep track of his symptoms. one day it worked the next not so much but it gave me hope. Seeing him the last couple days struggling effected me and lit a fire under my ass to help him . I know he takes medication for it but he couldn t tell me if it actually helped or not so I m entering the fight to help him anyway I canā¦
try kosher or bubba. kosher came up a LOT. this is why i list it #1.
i remember seeing kosher and parkinsons EARLY in my research. years before she was even diagnosed.
bubba comes up a lot as well.
good luck in your quest man. understand there is more to it than just the ganj. ganj will help, but proper diet, sleep, exercise etc all play their roles as well.
Absolutely , I was just trying to find a place to start and got tons of useful info and awesome advice. It s gonna be a rough road ahead but I can say I took the first step. As far as eating and exercise ,He s also diabetic and watches what he eats ,he walks everyday with the dog and is in bed by 9pm and up at 6am so he does try to take care of himself. Either way thanks for the infoā¦
last tidbit that we are dealing with on this end with the parkinsons. the limbs get very stiff at some point. not a big fan of yoga, but some kind of flexibility exercises to keep himself limber. it will pay off in long run with the mobility.
itās good that he walks with the dog daily. fresh air, sun and exercise and his little buddy to do it withā¦ all good stuff.
Yeah , man I was worried when he lost his other pooch a few years back but my mom went out against his wishes and bought him another one who is his new best friend, lol I will let him know about the stretching and stay on him. I got alot of great stuff here today ā¦
I suffer with spasms and slight tremors. Affects me more when resting. Iāve been told itās a form of Parkinson from one neurologist but another doesnāt agree.
I have found micro dosing helps. (Mushrooms)
Depending on the person and the disease most start in the brain, from what Iāve learned and been told.
Thatās why microdosing works for me. To be able to not have the spasms and tremors makes life easier.
Only reason I mentioned that was cause I have a family member that was said to have Parkinsons.
But it turned out it was just the pills they were taking that caused the symptoms.
That is awesome that the micro dosing gives you relief!
My heart breaks for him man . Like I said ,I m really starting to notice it get worst and feel like I should ve been helping him but my own stuff got in the way. I can t imagine living with it and it seems like his gets worst the more he tries to fight it. I got so much info and read for hours on how it works and all the little thing tht trigger it . I m hoping I can figure out something that will helpā¦ And I m sorry to hear u have this crap too. Man it s gotta be a tough thing to live with.
Thats some scary shit , My dads been on a couple different meds for it and I m not sure how great they work. I have some syringes one is Hawiian PE and Columbian ,and the Golden Teacher or something. I was thinking about micro dosing for my depression which has been getting the best of me . It would be fun to micro dose with my pops ,lol Im not sure how to even bring up tht subject ā¦ lol
I find trying to control, to stop tremors , it just makes it worse.
Or in just more aware of itā¦
Yoga helps, too.
Microdosing is unbelievable how well it works for me. Itās not about having a trip on shrooms. You donāt take that much, you can but thatās not my purpose
Ikr, Ever commercial say this pill will help u with head aches, the in the disclaimer it reads, can cause rashes, diarrhea ,vomitting ,u can grow a third nipple and on and on with more side effects . Shit the head ache was the easy part . lol I try not to take anything these days ,I smoke and have a few drinks every once and a while.
