Lots of info!: There may be newer research, but your doctor needs to know about this. I don't know what might be done to help, but they as specialists may. It IS quite possibly related to your essential tremor. Read this and share w/ your doctor. http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/content/126/6/1319.full Best!
