I am XXXX (Age: 27 yrs.)_belongs to XXXXXXX presently working in Oman. I do computer related works throughout the day.
History & Present condition:
When I was 11 years old, I felt tremor in my hand while writing or threading a needle. Gradually, the tremor started increasing and the situation was worse during my college days (age 16 to 20). While I was 22 yrs. old the tremor started spreading to my arm, hand and sometimes I feel it on head and other body parts during movements such as eating and writing. Now-a-days my fingers on both hands also started shivering making it difficult for me to work on computer. I feel body weakness also. The situation get worsen when I feel nervous.
The doctor named my problem as “Essential Tremor”.
Medication taken:
Unfortunately, doctors were not consulted earlier due to ignorance.
For the first time on 08-08-2013 (Age 26 yrs.) I consulted a neurologist (Dr. XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX Deccan hospital, Hyderabad), since I was working there.
He suggested for CT & MRI Scan and thyroid test and all the reports were normal. He prescribed_
Betacap 40mg,
Lonazep 0.5mg
Rejunex.
These medicines were consumed for 3 months but couldn’t find any relief.
Then another 3 months following medicines were consumed and it didn’t make any relief.
Nurokind plus &
Ecosprin 150mg
After this another doctor in my home town, XXXXXXX suggested to take_
Gabapentin 100mg,
Ecosprin 150mg &
Wysolin 10mg.
This was consumed for one and half months. I felt quite relax in my head and body but there was no effect on hand and fingers. So I stopped taking it.
Now the situation is same as before.
Recently I consulted a doctor nearby my work place, Oman.
He suggested for a blood test (CERULOPLASMIN). Result was normal. He prescribed_
Primidone 50mg. (Since the medicine is not available in Oman, I have not consumed it. I am trying to get it from India).
I have uploaded scanned copies of the treatment details done in the past.
