The quiet mouse

I have rheumatoid arthritis. These days are pretty good right now. I can move and I don’t have as much pain as I did. I’m taking an immune suppressant to help me. I was scared at first but I’m okay with it now

I also have tremors. Mostly in my face and head. The people around me on a regular basis know that it’s a normal thing that happens to me. It’s not seizures. That has been thoroughly checked out by my neurologist.

It’s kinda crazy but the thing that helps with my tremors is a beta blocker. Crazy right. It’s also used in the treatment of anxiety.

My neurologist did an MRI and found nothing major. I have had several MRIs through the years so I kinda knew what would pop up. One of the things I knew about was the damage from several concussions I’ve had through the years. We figured out that I have had at least 3 if not 4 concussions. My neurologist thinks that the scar tissue from them is what is causing my tremors. Which totally makes sense. I’m okay with it. It’s just something that has happened and my body is try to process it and sometimes I get tremors from it

I usually get a headache after the tremors stop and my balance will be wonky.

Sometimes I’ll get up in the middle of the night and use the bathroom. I’ll know right away if I’ve had tremors while sleeping because my balance will be off.

Overall it hasn’t caused me major problems so I have just wrapped it into things that happen to me that are weird.

It’s not something that I’m worried about or I frett about. I’ve kinda just let go and let God handle this one.
