Questions about Tremors and MS types?
Hi all,
Hi everyone! Have been experiencing Tremors for the past month... mostly in my hands. They tend to get worse when I do things and am tired. I am still in the diagnostic process, but for those of you who have MS and experience tremors do they go away when you are in remission? Or is it something that is with you all of the time? I am curious to know whether they will go away.
Also- how does a doctor or team igo about classifying weather your Ms is relapsing-remitting, secondary relapsing, or Progressive? Would my symptoms have to go away completely and then come back an order to be considered relapsing-remitting? I know each case is different and I know the diagnosis depends upon 1000 different factors and test results!
....patience is not my virtue. ;)
Hi @aggies , when our MS symptoms, e.g. a tremor, start to "grumble", it is our bodies telling us that we're overdoing things. We need to "listen to our bodies" and respond accordingly. There's some good information here regarding the different types of MS, together with a definition of what constitutes a relapse:- https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/types-ms
Hi @aggies. I have intention tremor (tremor when I try to do things like pick up a cup, or write e.g.) which effects me intermittently , usually if I'm tired. I am also waiting on classification of my MS. Patience not one of my virtues either !!! But I am gradually learning not to stress too much about this stuff - as @Stumbler says, stress exacerbates MS!!!
