Jerks On Hand, Not Able To Hold Anything. Consult Doctor?
I am a 60 yr. old African American female. For the past few months, I have noticed invountary movements (jerks) in my hands. Lately, I have start dropping things and sometimes when I drink my morning coffee, I will start to put the cup to my month and my hand jerks and I spill the coffe down the front of my blouse. What could be causing thi? Do I need to seek medical evaluation?

Hi,
From history it seems that your case requires evaluation.
There might be some problem in your brain giving rise to this involuntary movements in your hands.
Go for MRI brain.
Consult Neurophysician and get examined and investigated.
Ok and take care.
