I have essential tremor. Hearing about new treatment options is exciting. At one time my pediatric neurologist basically said the only kind of treatment had real nasty side effects, and most recently the prescription pill I tried also presented side effects that weren't worth it.

I'm going to look into this when I can. would love to try it if it's financially feasible.

ETA: Looking at their website and all the models in the photos are older people...

As someone diagnosed with ET since high school that's kind of funny.

Has anyone told you to avoid beta-carbolines in your diet?

Please don't do this kind of thing. It is incredibly rude. For me it's migraines - anytime I mention them I am absolutely flooded by people saying "oh, have you tried X? have you tried Y? All you need is celery juice!" I've been having migraines for 30 years. Believe me, I know more about them than you do.

Not everyone does research like you. And it is definitely not rude to ask have you heard about x and your thoughts about it, especially if you tried something and it didn't work it could spark a good discussion.

The guy they describe as their pilot patient was much younger.

Apparently (per neurologist) onset is basically bimodal—teens or so and around 60.
