What Can Cause Tremors In The Legs And Excessive Sweating?
My Husband has occasions of shaking legs, then his body goes limp and once we get him seated he seems to be Ok, but he has broken out in a cold sweat. His blood sugar and blood pressure are normal immediately after one of these spells but he wants to go to sleep.

Hi,
He may be suffering from a seizure disorder. Followed by sweating an autonomic phenomenon then postictal confusion and weakness and sleep.
Also, the possibility of panic attacks or psychosis or septicemia or hypoglycemia etc.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
Please get it done CT scan brain and serum electrolytes, EEG and complete blood count.
Consult your neuro physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
