tremors

I am a 53 year old female always worked and kept busy and on the go. About a year ago my coworkers noticed a tremor on my left hand. It has progressively gotten worst and i now have it on both hands and I have a constant movement of my head. I have been to 3 different Neurologist and I have been give 3 different diagnosis. I had an MRI and spinal tap to rule out MS and Parkinson.  I am currently in physical therapy and occupational therapy. I am also on Klonopin and Primidone. One Dr said it's stress and iI should also see a Psychiatrist, another stated I have Essential tremors and the other said Functional tremors. I am so confused since I am currently having a difficult time with simple task. I would also like to know if I need to make other arrangements for myself since I don't know if I can ever go back to work.

sounds like you could use a little more info.  Here is the link to a webpage all about Essential tremor, and other types.  It also gives help about new treatments, talks from people that suffer with it as well new treatment testing should you want to be in one of the testing groups.
here is the website:

I hope this helps
