Benign Essential Trem
"I have what my doctor calls a mild case of benign essential tremors, but when I&#039;m trying to practice or perform with my guitar, or do electronic work with small parts, its become more than annoying. Proprananol works, but as an asthmatic I have to avoid it or I&#039;ll wheeze. Doctor gave me a small dose of primadone, 50mg, and told me to cut some pills in half and just use 1/2 for a week or so first). I don&#039;t know if I&#039;d get used to this stuff over time, but unless I&#039;m willing to forget about musical performing while I wait, I&#039;m going to have to stop. I find my coordination, speed, concentration, ability to remember song parts and lyrics severely hampered. It does reduce (but not elimate) the tremors, but what good is it if I can&#039;t do my work?"
