Re: "Participate in a support group"
Hi Betty. Glad to hear you are still managing to get around. Thank you for sharing your story. Lots of what you say seems to be a common experience to most of us. I know when I was diagnosed ( 7 or 8 years since) although I have suffered OT for some 14 or 15 years. I thought knowing what it was I wo...

Re: Miss use of the OT website.
Well I must say that I am pleased that you have taken action. When you see such miss use it gives the wrong message. We can now enjoy using the site for its intended purpose. Many thanks,

Miss use of the OT website.
I've noticed that every day some one called " winborghi" puts an advert on our site. As this is a miss use I wonder could it be blocked before people start to feel the site no longer serves the intended purpose. I look at the site every morning and expect to read and share the joys and suf...

Living with OT
Hi Mike and Hi Mrs Mike. (sorry I don't have your name) When you talk about Mike going shopping and always on the move. You could easily be talking about me. You must be one of the few people without OT that has any idea what it is like. As far as the wheel chair goes, I can understand Mile's reluct...

Regards from Ireland (second attempt)
Hi Bevnix. Happy birthday (belated) hope you had a good day. My family come from North Cork. My Dad's great or great-great uncle was a stone mason who worked on the Statue of Liberty. I think he was sent back home to Ireland when he finished the job. You mother-in-law might be a long lost relation o...

Re: Accosted
Hi Bevnix. Sorry to hear you had to face an ignorant pig. Being a man and some times a bit aggressive, I would have told him what to do with himself. But my advice to you is to make a number of copies of the travel card and give it to anyone you encounter with a negative attitude. You will find the ...

Re: How is everyone?
Hi Donna. Sounds like you're doing all the right things. I know how hard it is to try and lead a normal life with OT and other illnesses. But I guess we have to try. I've heard a lot about Fycompa and was wondering if was as good as people say. I'm thinking of giving it a try if my neurologist agree...

Re: Complete Resolution of Symptoms of Primary Orthostatic Tremor with Perampanel
Hi Marianne . Just out of interest I Googled Fycompa and was not very impressed by what came up. It seem the side effects out weigh any benefits as far as I can see. It seems that all the medication for OT has some dreadful effects on the mind. Of course, I'm not a doctor so I can only suggest you t...

Re: How is everyone?
Hi Mike. Hope you are well. Just came across your post with reference to travel and how hard it can be. For the last four or five years I have requested/booked wheel chair assistance when flying. I find I get treated like royalty and find it most enjoyable. When you get to the airport you go to the ...

Re: Fluorescent Lighting
Hi Theresaann. I have never given florescent light any though. But thinking about it, I never feel too good in a large store. So maybe you have a pint. Changing the subject. I do notice that a lot of the post on the OT website tend to be a little dated. I think I joined about six years ago. When I w...

The steady march of OT
Hi Mark. I hope I didn't offend you with my direct remarks. I have been suffering with OT for more than 10 years and diagnosed about 7 years. That's when I found the OT web site.(which is fantastic, thanks to Gloria) When I was diagnosed the neurologist put me on Gabapentin which did nothing for my ...
