“What causes your nerves to shake?”
I am a 47 year old female. I have nerve shaking in my legs. What causes your nerves to shake?
1 Answer
This is a very complex question. There are many general medical problems as well as specific neurological problems that may cause someone to shake. Some causes of tremor include prescription medications, alcohol, illegal drugs, liver disease, thyroid disease, genetic diseases, psychiatric diseases, vitamin deficiencies, stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and a host of other diseases. I would recommend a full work-up from a general physician, then a specific visit with a neurologist to get a detailed examination and a targeted work-up.
