A nan-of-four 'got her life back' after struggling to write and carry cups of tea for years due to an incurable condition. Maureen Greenough, 65, didn't think anything of it when "a little shake" in her hand started several years ago.
But she worried she had Parkinson's and sought medical help after the tremor gradually got worse, spreading down her right-hand side and into her leg, the Liverpool Echo reports. The St Helens rugby league fan said: "It was embarrassing, because if I wanted a cup of tea, I'd have to hold it with both hands.
"I couldn't carry a cup of tea from the kitchen into the lounge without holding it with two hands, and even then I still spilt a bit. "If I went out anywhere, people didn't stare at me, but I was conscious of it. It's not a nice feeling."
