Regarding your experience with involuntary jerking of the hand at rest as well as numbness tingling with hot sensations at your arm I will suggest have developed a possible parkinsonism with peripheral neuropathy

In view of this please schedule an appointment with a neurologist specialist for expert clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription

Please take the following pending your appointment Tablet thiamine multivitamin
