Could you include orthostatic tremor in your next video? Unfortunately this condition is unknown by many doctors and neurologists, thus making diagnosis difficult. Because of this, many people don't receive help for years after the tremors start because their symptoms are dismissed. Thank you for your help!

It's unfortunate that you skipped over orthostatic tremor because it is so rare. Maybe it isn't as rare as one would think. This would have been the perfect opportunity to bring awareness to a disorder that is vastly misunderstood and overlooked simply because of lack of knowledge in the medical community. If it's not taught in med school, especially those that want to specialize in neurology, how will they be able to identify it in their patients?

Thanks! This is very interesting. Missing Orthostatic Tremor though. Could you please include it in one of your videos?

What about Complex Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia and Orthostatic Tremor?

Very disappointed you did not bother to talk about orthostatic tremor. It may be rare for you but for those of us who suffer from it ( and there are thousands worldwide) it is something we must live with for the rest of our lives. This is the reason why just about every doctor you talk to about OT look at you like you have four heads. Just about every MD and or medical professional has never heard of IT, one of the reasons why it takes so long to get a diagnosis.

Orthostatic tremor is lightly dismissed in your video, unfortunately there are people suffering from this horrible incurable disease, maybe you should include it in your video to raise awareness.

Why is Orthostatic tremor not taught in medical schools then I wonder?
