I've got a familial tremor which I have chosen to not medicate, as it has stress and activity triggers which I can usually control. However, after many of my 20+ shunt revisions my hands would tighten up just as they did following a six-week coma when I was 16. Intensive grip-strength and fine-motor training got me back to "normal" each time.</p> <p>Best,<br /> David </p> http://forum.gabrielslife.org/topic/103#post-397 Sun, 13 Jul 2008 02:04:42 +0000 swimgirl16 397@http://forum.gabrielslife.org/ <br /> http://forum.gabrielslife.org/topic/102#post-396 Sun, 13 Jul 2008 02:04:12 +0000 swimgirl16 396@http://forum.gabrielslife.org/ <p>Hi! The past couple of years,after each shunt revision(I'v had 6)I have developed a tremor, and Muscle Spascitiy(Dystonia). My shunt is currently working fine according to my Neurosurgeon. The older I get the more problems I have walking. Its now so bad that I am forced to start using a wheelchair to go long distances. Has anybody had something like this happen to them? </p>
