Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
I recommend performing a cervical spine MRI too, besides the brain MRI.
It is also important checking thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction and blood electrolytes. Do you have any medical history for tremor? What is your age? Do you suffer from high blood pressure or diabetes?
A nerve conduction study is also necessary.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
