I have benign familial tremor, a genetic disorder that causes hands & neck to shake. Is there an herbal cure?


I have been diagnosed by 2 doctors, it's a genetic neurological disorder affecting primarily hands and neck. It is intention specific, meaning it mostly occurs when performing certain tasks, especially when using fine motor skills (brushing teeth, writing, using a fork or spoon, applying mascara) It's advancing and becoming more noticeable and embarassing in addition to making it hard to eat in public as things drop from the fork. I'm trying to find an herbal cure, as the doctors don't want to give me anything.

I'm not aware of a herbal cure. There are medications that can be tried if your doctors feel it appropriate. An example would be low dose beta blocker (inderal). Violin players have been known to take this to minimize tremors during their performance.

I have something similar to you and it may mean nothing to you but it does get better at each generation. I have never heard anything herbal that would help but thiamine (its one of the B vitamins) can help 'improve' your nerve impulses
