Hi, I was wondering if sometimes people progress fast? Has anyone progressed in 4 yrs? I'm just curious or is everybody takes yrs to progress?

I have a fairly new condition and would like to know if others have experienced it as well. I have suffered from internal tremors for quite awhile but this is worse. I get a kind of internal tremor that is faster than usual. Sometimes in the morning before getting up but mostly at night when I hurt and am tired and get into bed.
