#FridayFact: Essential Tremor is often misdiagnosed as Parkinson’s disease, yet it’s eight times more common. March is Essential Tremor Awareness Month, raising awareness of a neurological condition that affects 10 million people in the U.S. alone. Though not life threatening, ET can be life-debilitating, causing extreme difficulty for daily activities such as eating, drinking, writing, typing, etc. At the WVU Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute, we are dedicated to advancing treatments, including focused ultrasound and deep brain stimulation, to improve the lives of those living with ET.
