I have had a movement disorder for nearly 20 yrs.. started with a drug reaction.. continued with more reactions and then an essential tremor lead to movements of various kinds.. facial grimacing, and a left sided flacideness. Most problems start on the left for me, the left is always worse also. For years I had been told it was in my head, along with had SEVERAL diagnosis or possible diagnosis. After some time, I lost complete control of bladder, and bowel, then they discovered Hypothryoidism. I started on meds and MOST symptoms got better. The shakes waxed and waned MUCH less than previously. Still had the shakes. Daughter developed and diagnosed with essential tremor at 15. The shakes recently became worse, and involved severe posturing and contorting… The drs again tell me it is in my head! The psych docs say I am psychologically stable and it is NOT in my head! I am just looking for SOME help! Recently developed issues with my eyes racing back and forth, then impaired vision in left eye.. I am just looking for some HELP! PLEASE! It has been mentioned DRD2 problem and vit. B defiency… ANY IDEAS! Thanks! =)
