Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Shaking in body may be seizures or extrapyramidal movement due to parkinsons disease.
Is the movement episodic or continous?
Relaxation in sleep?
Any impairment in consciousness?
Any frothing, tongue bite, neck deviation, eye deviation?
You should get her examined by a neurologist.
You can also upload a video of episodes.
Provide other previous reports and medications.
