jmb... I also have ETs, but they seem to be milder than yours. Mine seem to be worse when trying to do more precise things...like writing, typing ect. I can carry a glass, or cup. I was evaluated at Mayo, Rochester for DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION, OR PRECISE ULTRASONIC ABLATION. However, I was declined for multiple reasons... age, severe COPD, PEs, Alpha 1, and stage of condition. DBS is where they implant electrodes in your brain (like having a pace maker), the PUA is where they use ultrasound to ablate part of the control center of your brain (you can spend 2 to 3 hours going in and out of an MRI machine.)
