Hi,
Thanks for posting query.
This tremor is due to hypoglycemia as she is on diabetes and it could be due to any other disease as she had a history of pleural effusion and the cause behind that we don’t know.
So consult with endocrinologist for further advices.
Wish you a speedy recovery.
Regards,
Dr Sourav Ganguly
