What Causes Tremors In The Hands While Suffering From Anxiety?
I have shakes when I try to do anything with my hands. I suffer from Generalized anxiety, Fibromyalgia, early stage COPD. The shaking started after the death of my youngest 5 years ago. This week I have had a sudden shaking of my upper body and light-headness. I take two of my Ativans .05 mg each and eat something and that seems to bring it back down slowly. What do you think is causing this.?
