And when it happens now, I know what's going on and how to "fix" it, so I don't panic, which also helps.Īs Fokoladenkekfe mentioned, I also have diabetes, which I developed after being so inactive for so long. If my hands were shaking too bad to do things for mom, I HAD to rest.įiguring that out, explaining it to mom, and making sure to take better care of my resting needs made a HUGE difference. So I told my naturopath about it (I also have an MD, but he's almost worthless,) and after explaining when it happened, what was going on when it happened, how long the bouts lasted, and how much rest it took to get rid of them, we figured out that it was because of taking care of mom at the expense of taking care of myself. I couldn't carry a glass of water or lift a utensil to my mouth.

We also have another roommate who does our shopping and some chores around the house, so that's a HUGE help.Īnyway, when the tremors started, I was utterly freaked out. It would be more exhausting to have another person around than it is to do so much myself. No, I'm not well enough to do it, but I have to. I have had tremors before, and still get hints of it now and then.Īlong with being housebound (but not bed bound, ) I am the primary caretaker of my 92-year-old mother. I checked and there's not a test for Parkinson's. I have a doctor appointment next week and will ask about it but wondered if anyone here had insight. Tremors mostly went away, so I'm guessing they are a new symptom, but it seems weird after decades of stability (more or less). It's worse for sure when I try to move slowly.Īnyway, that was over a month ago, and I've spent most of the month in bed. Scariest to me was when I tried to smile slowly and my face jerked uncontrollably. All this happened while was in a bad relapse (and tracking it with HR and HRV).

My legs shook every time I walked down stairs. Worse, over NYE, I was so shaky that I almost fell in the campfire when I tried to walk around it. And then my hands started shaking so much that my handwriting degraded a lot. Or my hands would get just a tiny bit trembly.īut in the past year or two - hard to pin down - my hands tremoring has become a "tell" for my kids they see even small tremors and know I'm tired. if I squatted and did some gardening, then my thighs would tremor for a few hours every time I lowered myself. I've always had shaky muscles when I was very tired, but it was a rare thing, maybe a couple times of year, e.g. But since then, my symptom LIST has been stable, if not the severity. The first year I had some odd symptoms that went away (sudden attacks of itchy hands that would then swell, face sometimes welting up, getting really sick with bronchitis over and over). I fell ill with CFS/ME when I was 20, more than 30 years ago.
