New treatment for essential tremor now available in SE Michigan

March is Essential Tremor Awareness Month — a reminder that the condition impacts about 10 million Americans and is frequently mistaken for Parkinson's disease. People with essential tremor experience involuntary shaking so severe that everyday tasks like writing or holding a cup can become nearly impossible. Local 4's Dr. Frank McGeorge reports that a treatment option for the condition is now available in Southeast Michigan.
