| In the last couple of years my body shakes. It doesn't happen all the time. Just sometimes my body starts shaking. It's annoying but, appears to be harmless. Not sure what causes it, just seems to happen for a few minutes, then stops. |

Quoted:
see a doctor , thats all i got ,sorry Probably won't. It's a periodic occurrence that remind me of what I've read on palsy (spelling)...though iirc palsy is constant. Been working on getting my vitamin intake up, more exercise, etc. Just had an episode about 10 mins before I posted about it. Usually lasts 5-10 minutes. |
|
Quoted:
Does it happen when you're hungry? And does it go away if you eat? Low blood sugar can make you feel shaky. That is a possibility. I haven't eaten in the last day, or so, yet...I'm not hungry. I used to eat a crapload of food. That changed when I hit 40...now, I might eat one meal a day...if that. |

Quoted:
Nurse wife says Anxiety....possibly blood sugar but doesn't sound like it. Very possible. Took over a business, recently. With zero capital backing. They wanted out, they're out. And I'm in. They quit advertising around 3 years ago. Main competitor is advertising all over. ((ETA)) Now that I think about it...shakes started, off-and-on, when I decided to go for it ... busieness-wise. |

That is not normal. Even IF someone here is qualified to make a medical diagnosis, there is no way they enough information on YOU to make a diagnosis. The only logical action is for you to obtain a medical diagnosis. There are a great many things which might cause that symptom. 1. Might be a symptom of exposure to anyone of a variety of toxins 2. Might be a symptom of anyone of a variety of genetic disorders 3. Might be a symptom of certain neurological disorders 4. Might be a symptom of certain types of cancer 5. Might be a symptom of one of a variety of blood disorders 6. Might be a combination of the above, or none of the above. The bottomline is its not normal. This isn't the place to get a medical assessment. Go talk to a medical doctor. Shit  |

I've gone from a lot of processed stuff to fresh made stuff, lately...when I can. It's amusing when a friend is getting lunch and it's "you want a salad?' And the answer is yes, with blue cheese and bacon.

Quoted:
I had the same thing a few years ago. Hyperthyroidism....Graves disease. That was the symptom that got my attention. Do you feel abnormally warm? No Do you have an accelerated heart rate? No It seems to be completely random. I can be completely stressed out and about to blow up...and things are normal....I can be completely passive, relaxed, and I start shaking. If that makes any sense. I have been blaming it on stress...and that would be a long story. |

Finally, we know about you.

I hope you understand if I consider that a trap. I have dealt with depression, in the past, among other things. And never needed medications. I consider happy, depression, anger, not feeling anything, sadness...etc...to be normal in life. To be dealt with as it comes. |

Dude. Seriously.

Not a trap....you aren't saying you are thinking of hurting yourself or others if that's what you are implying....shouldn't lose your guns or be committed. You are currently having a problem......medical....or mental...or both......seeking out a way to fix that doesn't make you weak....if anything it makes you stronger for trying to fix yourself and not accept your shortcomings. But.......horse....water..... |

Seriously though...I am going to talk to a couple docs on this. |

I could just be sitting in a chair and then feel like I was in a slight tremor that would last for about ten minutes or so. I had the other symptom though. It still is something that you should get checked out. I was supposed to fly cross country on the day I finally went into the ER and my resting heart rate was nearly 120BPM. |
