short circuit brain

When you have your tremor do you feel like your brain isn't talking to all the areas of the brain? I have right sided tremor and it has become noticeable by all. I also have a short circuit in speech and when typing my rhythm sometimes steps out of beat and then back. I do not know if I am explaining this right or not. Just need some help. Thanks for any support from anyone.

" Yes, I do know what you mean. I feel the same way. When I type, sometimes write I slow down like my brain isn't working right somehow. I've had ET of the head/neck since I was young and it progressively worsens with age. "

" Hi Sandi,

I too have the exact problem you do. I'm not sure what they can do to fix it. Sometimes I feel like I'm getting Alzheimer's or something and I know that's not what it is. The thing where you can't remember a word is getting way worse now. I stop mid-sentence because the word just 'disappeared' from my mind. My tremors are getting worse too. The Inderol doesn't seem to be working anymore. Have you heard whether or not there's something else??? "
