Essential Tremor Support Group to meet

The Essential Tremor (ET) Support Group will meet at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 4, at Baptist HealthPlace at Nocatee, 400 Colonnade Drive, Unit 130, Ponte Vedra. The topic is “Cognitive Changes in Essential Tremor: What the Latest Studies Show.”

Recent research is changing how we understand essential tremor, showing that ET may involve more than movement symptoms alone. Alaine Keebaugh, Ph.D., will discuss recent studies on cognition, memory and dementia risk in people with ET, including what researchers have discovered, what remains uncertain and what the findings mean for patients and family members.
