Seriously. I have a hand tremor, that is not Parkinsons. I simply cannot write anymore, in a free and easy fashion. I have to get a "death grip" on the pen or pencil and Really Concentrate, on what I'm trying to do, or I cant read my own writing.
I have been to a Neurologist, took medication for one month, doubled the meds, for a second month, with no change. Neurologist said, that's all he could do, unless I wanted to take Botox shots, at $400.00 a pop. FORGET THAT!!
My wife, suggested hypnosis! -- As a possible solution. She thinks I stress out, when trying to write. Yeah, I do, when I realize I have to write something down, or make an entry in the checkbook, or fill out a form of some type, or sign my name. Signing my name, takes a full 30 seconds; if I want it to look decent. It's embarrassing and makes me look stupid.
So, I'm posting here, to get your thoughts. Geez, you answer every other question put forth on this board. So, I thought I'd give it a shot. I'd appreciate any and all comments. Oh yeah, I'm 66 years old and health is pretty darn good, otherwise!
