 I woke up with small muscle spasm in neck. It felt less like a tremor and more like a slow pace twitch or slightly above average circulation, back left side. I could feel it while moving and walking. As I stand with my arms raised to type this I feel this activity stopping when I paused finger movement then resume as I type. Shortly after came a similar twitch/pulse in my left mid to lower back. Still, not nearly as intense as yesterday.

I noticed there was tension late yesterday in my mid thoracic to cervical, I looked up posture tips and found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv6CtwsgPHk 

I'll try to keep this in my posture and see what happens soon, it does feel good but i may not look good, whatever

I paced back in forth practicing this posture tip, I feel tremor through my arms when I lift them but I noticed my balance has improved significantly, not much lateral swaying

An hour plus into this practice and I feel the sway coming in.

Noticed ET in neck when I spoke on the phone. I'm standing now and talking and I don't notice it. The longer I talk the more it comes in

I lost 5lbs but still constipated, small and daily BM

I went out to buy tea(non-caffeinated) and noticed an attendant at self-checkout. She had ET in her hands with hunched gait. I asked about her hands and said that I may soon have what she has, she nodded and added that she has Parkinson's. I waited for her to take care of a customer realizing that she's doing well with the disease. She said it happened suddenly in 2010 she shook uncontrollably and wildly according to her gesture, she went in for a deep brain stimulation procedure which, according to her, helped her symptoms greatly. I expressed to her that God's power is shown in our tragedy and successes, we shook hands and left to our business.

 Woke up too early with no felt tremors- had to urinate. Stayed in bed, slept for an hour or two longer- woke up with mild tremor in upper body  My left arm and hand felt jittery this morning. It resembled the earlier phase, my hands were a slightly twitchy again when I move them Went swimming and became confused at how much time has passed. I always spot the wall clock then track it in order to swim for 30 min after. I started at what I thought was 11:55am then noticed that it 11:30am later. I can't remember if I started at 11:55am or 10:55am. Regardless I made a mental note to leave when the big hand touches 25 after. It did, and I couldn't believe how fast it was. I was just warmed up so I decided to go 15 minutes after. I haven't noticed much vertigo today so far. Hands are still jittery, I think my anxiety amps this

3/2/22 Been experiencing resting tremors for the past two days, I feel them when sitting, standing and lying down. Pretty low profile but sometimes considerably noticeable. It may be an off and on occurrence or nonstop with me ignoring it Later that night I had a slow and meditative hour to read, I believe the tremors stopped or were great supressed as much Went to bed right after and felt it again, I kept my body straight and focused on my breath and the tremors were stopped or suppressed, it was a great enough effort to ignore them. But I noticed exactly where it was coming from: my right leg in the glute area. I felt blood circulating there followed by abrupt muscle twitches in the thigh. Following that my thumb and index fingers twitched in a shorter manner but still as abrupt During bed I also felt more movement in my abdomen than usual followed with sounds

Woke up obsessed with ideas. I let them brew all through breakfast. Dizziness is creeping in, nowhere near full effect but noticed Higher mental stress occurred at work. Balance disorder came in at higher intensity. Manageable still. A nervous left arm as well After a slow and controlled yoga session, my balance was near fully restored Went to drawing group and felt a dose of balance disorder. It felt as if I would randomly lose sense of it in my arm, like my control would just slip momentarily while I drew. I drew well- I was able to hold the pencil still onto paper, but I didn't feel competent. Maybe it had something to do with the past awful interaction I had with the model, it was definitely on my mind as I noticed her presence and I suspect it was on hers as well since she made the effort to ignore me years ago
