Orthostatic Tremors
Need Help in looking for solutions for a condition named "Orthostatic Tremors". Here's the description:
Primary Orthostatic Tremor, also known as Orthostatic Tremor (OT), is a disorder characterized by high frequency tremors of the legs(13-18 Hz) causing severe contractions of the muscles of both legs simultaneously. Our tremors are not visible to the eye. OT is a slow, progressive disease and the cause is unknown. It is a rare disorder and there is no known cure. There are a few medications that give marginal help in relieving the symptoms. This disorder is very often misdiagnosed as other neurological problems such as Parkinson, MS etc.
OT sufferers will not always present themselves complaining of tremors, instead we will say that when standing in a still position our legs suddenly feel heavy, unsteady and have a sense of imbalance. Our legs strain to stand with toes curled under as if to grip the ground to help retain us. It is a sudden DISABLING EVENT ! As a result we can stand for only a short period of time, in some cases only for seconds. We must sit or walk to relieve our symptoms. -Shelton

I would use herbal CA at least 6 a day. Omega 3 about 2 caps 3 times a day. You may need to do magnesium also. B-Complex feeds the nervous system. Super Supplemental and Colloidal Minerals. -S. Nesky |
