  • Summary

  • This podcast is all about Essential Tremor. You've all seen it in other people but didn't know what it was called. It is estimated that between 4 and 10 million people in the United States alone is afflicted. We will discuss news, treatment options and lifestyle issues.

    I've had essential tremor for as long as I can remember but it really got bad in the last 5 years or so. Therefore, I come to this, as your host, from a layman's perspective and not a medical professional. We will cover everything related to ET.

    I welcome your input!

    Marcus, from the Columbus, Ohio area, is undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. Marcus suffers from essential tremor, a neurological disorder affecting an estimated 4 to 10 million people in the US alone! ET is about 10 times more common than Parkinson's Disease, which it is often confused with

    This episode focuses on his second of this 3-part surgery, implantation of the second electrode. If you include the turn-on phase, it becomes a 4-part surgery.

    There are several different versions of DBS surgery, depending on the patient and the surgeon. Mine was done differently than Marcus'.

    As always, a video version of this podcast is over on YouTube.
