Olá, eu sou a Gorete, sou de Portugal, tenho 33 anos e tenho tremores desde que nasci. Tenho tido muitas dificuldades, principalmente, em escrever o meu nome, em segurar qualquer coisa nas mãos e piora muito mais quando estou ansiosa ou nervosa ou quando faço muito esforço com os braços. Gostava de saber se existe algum medicamento que fizesse estes tremores passarem ou pelo menos serem reduzidos, pois é muito complicado tu ires tirar o cartão de cidadão e não conseguires escrever o teu nome. Já fiz muitos exames e os médicos dizem todos que eu não tenho nada. Podem ajudar-me?

Hi Gorete!  We were sorry to hear of your difficulties. There are many medications that can be used in the treatment of tremor.  Perhaps, it might be a good idea for you to print some of the information off our website (including the list of medications) and show them to your doctor.
