This is remarkable. Game changing for so many people living with Parkinson’s and other tremor disorders. Thanks for sharing this with the public.

Is this a permanent fix or must he go for more treatments?

[@tommavrakos]

I’m SO thankful you posted this!?! They interrupted The Today Show with a VERY NON emergency news report!!! (99% of them are NON emergencies!) SO irritating!?! This was SUCH important information for people who needed it?!?! (My husband and my aunt and my uncle all deal with pretty severe tremors!!!) I shared it for them. I KNOW FOR A FACT that this information is more urgent than the news break that came on!?!?! That totally could have waited to be covered during the regular news time!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️

What state and hospital?

[@ma.carinapangilinan4264]
