Question: I suffer from Lupus. Sudden deaths in my family by accident, got sick, pneumonia and lupus flare, 21 days at hospital, given antibiotics for 16 straight days. Sent home could not stand on my own I kept falling as my knees could not keep me up. after about two months that symptom left then the involuntary shaking began, sometimes longer intervals sometimes shorter it may not come for a day or two then it comes anytime any place even in the middle of the road and when this occurs I cannot move until the shaking stops. I have to always have someone to take me around and escort me until the shakes stops. It stops suddenly just as how it starts. This has been going on since February last year. The doc says it will wear off with time, maybe in the next 6 to 8 months but here I am still shaking like an earthquake and cannot move until the shaking stops. Can you give me a suggestion. Other than I am normal. I run three miles every morning, I had been an athlete and still take part in 5km and walking races. Having to stay away from the sun I am no more very active as most of the events takes place when the sun is over head. My exercise routine takes place 4.30 a.m. to 5.30 a.m. When my leg starts shaking I stand on the spot even if I feel like moving or walking my feet just would not go. sometimes my head gets into the action also but this mostly happens on my left side. Sometimes the right leg also starts but this is not very often. Even if you hold my hand and try pulling me the feet just won't go, it stand there and shake until it stops and is ready to go again with the business of the day. This is very frustrating. People always say but I just saw you walking down the road good and at a brisk pace what is happening? Are you Okay?
