I’m 84 and have had ET since I was 40 years old. Over the years as it became progressively worse I was put on more and higher dosages of medications. I am now maximized on all three; propranolol, topiramate and primidone. Because I have taken them so long, my tremors are almost as bad as they were before. Will the Vilim Ball help if I am on medication? I don’t dare stop now.
As with any device or treatment, we always recommend you first consult with your doctor. Here is a link to a brochure about the VILIM ball that you can share with him/her. https://vilimed.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Brochure_VILIM-ball-3.pdf. Many people have reported enough success with using it to actually stop taking medication, but that is up to you and your doctor to decide.
Is there any information about using this device in conjunction with DBS? Would using this device with DBS cause any contraindications? I have a DBS that is not working like it did when first implanted 8 years ago and I am always searching for anything that lessons my tremor. Thanks, Carter
