I have had a tremor in my right hand for approx 2 years. It was dx as an intentional shake, no big deal. About 8 months ago I started to have issues with my hands, now they feel almost completely numb, I still have movement but it's rigid and stiff. I can't ' grasp' very well, and almost no fine motors skills with my fingers. Hope this makes sense. Recently I had an episode of drop foot for 2days then came better. My GP has referred me to a neurologist which I hope to see this week. There is Huntingsons in my family but distantly. Past 4 weeks I can no longer work the hours I was totally used too as I'm exhausted ( had a low thyroid count briefly) but the tiredness was unreal.
My tremour in my right hand had disappeared in the past month .. Others noticed I wasn't shaking, my left is starting to tremble now ..
It's my doctor who suggested this dx amongst others things of course but I do fit the symptoms ...
Obviously, the past 12 days since I was told it looks to be something serious ( I had told myself it was carpel tunnel) my life has turned upside down .. I've Probably missed listing some symptoms. Hope this all makes sense.
