Shakeyness/tremors. I have it mostly in my hands, left worse than right. I have had it for a long time but it seems worse lately. Going to discuss in my yearly physical.

Not sure if this is the same as what you're experiencing though.

When my sugar gets low... I shake... if I ignore it, I pass out. It also happens if I work out too hard... but that is also cause/effect relationship.

It gets significantly worse when he drinks caffeine. He has been to neurologists and they don't know what it is. It doesn't affect his life so he hasn't done anything else about it.

My grandmother had it really bad. It's not worrisome, just annoying.

It can be related to blood sugar being out of whack. Have you had any recent testing?

Not since last January but i am having my physical next week so will get bloodwork done.

Essential tremors run in my family. It gets worse with age. Beta blockers have helped some family quite a bit.

Hope you can get something to help! I know it can be frustrating (to the point of avoiding eating soup, etc.)

Turns out it was his thyroid. Easy test to find out if that is the trouble.
