My Life with Essential Tremor

 My symptoms may be due to brain trauma from swimming. I have a habit of whipping my head laterally to rid of water logged in my ears. This habit has gone on for once a week every week for a half year at least. Damage may be occurring cumulatively. First tremor then vertigo. I suppose it's redundant to say that I will not swim anymore.

 It's been tough, I still don't have the shakes as bad as when I started but my sense of movement and balance has been consistently rocky. I got some cherry juice to see if that would improve symptoms.

 I've been good until after Mother's Day weekend. I had pizza with cheesecake and buffalo wings, lots of gluten and added sugars. BM seemed normal but the shakiness came back chronically. Again, not as bad as it was in the starting month but disturbing. I've had a habit of high fruit breakfast for almost two months now. I'm wondering if that contributes to the shakiness. Loss of balance occurs chronically as well. I must note that I've had dessert days before without much symptoms but Mother's Day was a haymaker on top of a pie and ice cream day I had 48 hours prior. Still no alcohol or caffeine intake, that may be why my symptoms have yet to come back in their initial intensity And of course, I do worry, lots on my mind...
