What Causes Involuntary Shaking Of Legs And Hands When Sad Or Happy?
hi doctor, whenever there is a situation causing extreme happiness or extreme sadness around me , my hands, legs lips and eyes start shivering along with that the fingers of my hands are locked which get again in the normal position after few minutes . i have consulted a doctor who says that i am suffering from vitamin D deficiency or hypocalcaemia. earlier my serum calcium level was 5.9 but now it is 9.1 (normal) but my knees have also started paining while going up through a stairs. so my question to you is that this problem of locking of fingers of my hand is due to calcium deficiency or not. thank you
Well please check serum electrolytes apart from calcium level.If it is happening with all investigations being normal and mostly in emotionally arousing states then psycological factors are playing important role.A mental health professional can access you regarding this sensitivity or associated nervousness & address the issue.
