I have just got the neurologists report and the good news is that I don't have essential tremors.:no:
The problem is moderate to servere narrowing of the openings through which the nerves pass through the vertibrae in the neck which is caused by a degenerative disorder of the cervical spine. Simply put - "You're getting old mate - so go build a bridge and get over it : it ain't going away.":(( The size of the openings will continue to contract over the coming years and at that time neurosurgery may be required.
Anti-inflamatory medication is working pretty well during the day, but not much help at night. So, as long as I confine woodturning activities to the daylight hours, I should be able to continue for some time to come. :U
Well time to get back to work - have 50 boxes to do and daughters have put in thier Christmas orders.:2tsup:
