According to this:
http://www.aafp.org/afp/20031015/1545.htmlA neuroleptic induced tremor is a resting tremor, like in Parkinson's. I don't have a resting tremor. I have an action tremor. I'm not sure exactly what type of action tremor I have, but I know it's not a resting tremor.
Now that I think about it, I remember having tremors when I wasn't on any medication. I had them in my cell biology labs. I remember them because they were annoying when I was pipetting. Maybe it was anxiety? I don't know. I don't think the tremors were as bad back then. I think my tremors get worse when I think about them.
Who should I go to about my tremors? My pdoc? Or my GP? I need someone who knows what they are doing. My pdoc doesn't strike me as much of a medical professional, but I guess I could be wrong.
Maybe I should ask her before I stop taking anything. I don't know if I have to wean off them or what.
I should do an experiment...I should experiment with alcohol. For essential tremor, alcohol helps the tremors. I should go drink a screwdriver and see if I can play Jenga. LOL
Yep, I'm doing it. A before and after experiment. Not a very controlled experiment, but good enough.
