National Essential Tremor Awareness Month
March is National Essential Tremor Awareness Month. To quote from the International Essential Tremor Foundation, Essential Tremor, or ET, "is a neurological disorder that causes hands, heads and voices, and sometimes legs and trunk to shake." It is also referred to as familial tremor, benign essential tremor, or hereditary tremor.
To quote from Wikipedia, "ET is one of the most common neurological diseases, with a prevalence of approximately 4% in persons age 40 and older and considerably higher among persons in their 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. Aside from enhanced physiological tremor, it is the most common type of tremor and one of the most commonly observed movement disorders." It's important to realize, though, that ET can occur in people of any age, even newborns.
Although there are some medications to treat the symptoms of ET, those medications are only effective in about 60% of people who suffer from the disorder.
To learn more about ET, visit the International Essential Tremor Foundation. Here are a few pages focused on information.

ET awareness month really does help spread awareness. It's incredible how such a simple thing can start things moving. I'm hopeful that some day we will find a cure.
