Do Essential Tremors Cause Lung Diseases?
I am taking 50 mg Primidone twice a day now for essential tremors. Probably for 3 or 4 years. I am having lung problems as my pulmonary doctor has found pseudomonas and is treating this with Levaquin. My breathing has become shallow and now I am wondering if possibly my essential tremors is causing this difficulty.. To make matters worse, my neurologist has moved away. Could you shed some light on this. I thank you.
