Thank you CGMoonbeam! I've discussed this at length my Neurologist. He prescribed 3 different pills and recommended a hand glove to no avail..Thankful for Samsung notes on my android phone that allow me to type and save my messages .
Thank you, Elaine. I understand how you feel. Thankfully when I'm at an establishment that needs my signature, they're patient and understanding. I focus on what I'm able to do and give God the Glory! I'm now using a walker but able to walk inside the ๐ and the ๐ฌ ..It could Always be worse; so Elaine, let's Be Thankful that God Loves and knows us. Look at the Big Picture! Be Encouraged Elaine! We are more than our handwriting;that doesn't define who we are. Also, I'm prescribed Primidone that I take an hour before I need to write legibly and it helps for about 2 hrs..Baclofen or metotoptol didn't help..Speak Positivity,Be Prayerful and Believe God! Bless you!
Hello Cheryl 156 My neurologist prescribed primidone 3 x's a day. I only take it at night (at first caused weird dreams but fine now). Sometimes I take one during the day if my right hand is shaking. I was surprised when my primary care dr said she prescribes primidone too. I use to have beautiful handwriting and printing, now it's so shaky and hard to read. It's embarrassing to even write my name! I was trying to write 2 short thank you notes for Christmas, the first one was ok but not my old writing, by the 2nd note I had to toss it because I was shaking so much and had to try again the next day! This is one of the things about MS that really discourages me. Hang in there.

Talk to your neuro about this. It would probably have to be prescribed.
