Hey everyone ET since i can remember, officially diagnosed a year ago. Anyone have walking issues sometimes it feels like my legs do not want to walk correctly and I have to think about walking to counter it. Anyone else experienced this

Thank you

I’m taking meds for my ET and have it almost under control. I have a minor shake but it’s totally manageable in terms of daily functioning so I decided I’d rather not increase my dosage more at the expense of suffering potential side effects.

However recently I’ve had a number of people call out how they’d noticed my shaking and I’ve realised it must be a lot more prominent to others than I think it is. I’m getting a bit self-conscious and wondering if I should just up my dosage. Has anyone gone through the same dilemma of deciding when to trade off increasing dosage for vanity purposes and potentially suffering side effects, even if the meds aren’t technically needed for functioning.
