Why Does My Hand Shake Every Moment Of The Day?

Joey,

The tremors in Parkinson's disease even Juvenile PD (2-20 years old) begin not as bilateral action tremors but as unilateral resting tremors - exactly the opposite of what you describe. So we can pretty much rule out PD. You have described an action tremor:

As you can see at the National Institutes of Health tremor links, there is a wide variety of tremor disorders and different types of tremors:

But what you do have could be Essential Tremor which is why anonymous suggested Propranolol, a beta blocker, which is often the first prescription for ET although it is met with varying success.. You won't be able to just get any of the meds used to treat ET without a neurological diagnosis and a prescription so, it is important to schedule the first appointment as soon as possible.

Please move from page to page at the linked site below because there is considerable information at WeMove.org:

Like PD, there is no cure for Essential Tremor but medication may make it easier to manage. It already interferes with your photography and I guess you are already using or considering a tripod.

There is a long list of tremor diseases and conditions but treatment requires a professional diagnosis.

You can do a simple home test for ET but it isn't definitive and you are below the legal drinking age in the US. What some people do is the alcohol test using a shot or two of liquor - not beer and probably not wine either. If the tremors abate, it might be ET. And then you go to the doctor with this additional information.

Be prepared for your doctor's appointment. Make a list of the symptoms, when they appeared, what you were doing. Make a list of medications taken before the first symptom appeared as well as any meds being currently taken. This list includes over-the-counter meds and nutritional supplements. Also make a list of any illnesses which occurred prior to the onset of symptoms.

Because ET is considered a genetic disorder, a Family Medical History is important. Talk to your adult relatives to tap their memories of older relatives (by blood) for all medical conditions. It is important to include any and all conditions because even if they don't relate now, they could be significant in years to come.

You'll take copies of all of your lists to your doctors appointment for your medical records. Your Primary Care doctor may refer you to a neurologist, an endocrinologist or even a cardiologist depending upon the first exam and any tests ordered. My guess is that you will be seeing a neurologist who specializes in motion disorders.

Best Wishes

Sure--I'll shake it's hand--if I can sling him into a wood chipper and claim diplomatic immunity!

Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral needed by every cell of your body. About half of your body's magnesium stores are found inside cells of body tissues and organs, and half are combined with calcium and phosphorus in bone. Only 1 percent of the magnesium in your body is found in blood. Your body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant

According to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences (1977) there have been more than 50 studies, in nine countries, that have indicated an inverse relationship between water hardness and mortality from cardiovascular disease. That is, people who drink water that is deficient in magnesium and calcium generally appear more susceptible to this disease. The U.S. National Academy of Sciences has estimated that a nation-wide initiative to add calcium and magnesium to soft water might reduce the annual cardiovascular death rate by 150,000 in the United States, "

. However, the literature indicates that deficiencies may exist in both third world and industrialized nations and may influence cardiac and vascular diseases, diabetes, bone deterioration, renal failure, hypothyroidism, and stress. Because Mg in certain forms is not easily absorbed and no classical symptoms exist, the problem of Mg deficiency is readily masked, especially in high risk groups such as diabetics, alcoholics, those taking hypertension medication, and some athletes. The current Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for the US is 6 mg/Kg/day, which translates to 420 mg for a 70 Kg man. The estimated intake in the US is 300 mg/day. Studies show that as much as 3 times this amount may be needed by the general population and especially by those predisposed to cardiac disease states. This report summarizes recent research on Mg in human diets and the results of Mg deficiencies.

Many diseases are related to magnesium deficiency, and may be prevented or treated with magnesium-rich water:

Aggressive Behavior Alcoholism Amytrophic Lateral Sclerosis Arrhythmia Asthma Cancer Cerebral Palsy

Cerebrovascular Chronic Fatigue Cluster Headaches Constipation Diabetes Fibromyalgia

Fluoride Toxicity Head Injuries Heart-Related Conditions HIV Hypertension Kidney Stones

Migraine Multiple Sclerosis Osteoporosis Pregnancy-related problems Premenstrual Syndrome

Psychiatric Disorders Rheumatoid Arthritis Sickle Cell Disease Sports-related problems Stress

Toxic Shock

To meet the new RDA's for Mg established Sept. 1999 by the NAS 275 , reduce disease, and prevent violence, it is proposed that juvenile delinquents and inmates be switched to naturally magnesium-rich hard-water sources containing at least 100 mg/L or fortify tap-water supplies of corrections facilities to that level with magnesium bi-carbonate (which tastes like good, sweet hard water). If inmates consumed 1.5 liters of Mg-rich water per day, they would be getting 150 mg/day from water, covering the shortfall for all non-pregnant juveniles and inmates.

Some Drugs cause loss of body magnesium:

Why depend on Mg-in-water instead of Mg in food?

There is no established way of fortifying foods with magnesium without adversely affecting texture or flavor. Magnesium in water is 30% more bio-available than Mg in food. The food supply has been steadily becoming

Explanations for the decline of magnesium in the American diet include more food processing, soil-exhaustion the FDA's destruction of the American mineral water industry in the 1930's, and the development of softer tap water reservoirs to replace the hard water of streams and wells.

Numerous studies show a relationship between magnesium intake and asthma symptoms and it is suggested that intakes of magnesium in the general population are deficient.

Extensive metabolic balance studies done by the USDA Research Service showed that the ratio of dietary calcium to magnesium that best maintained equilibrium (i.e., output equaling intake) was 2:1 (Hathaway, 1962).

Patents with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome are often found to be low in Mg. Supplementation with malic acid and magnesium is a common treatment for fibromyalgia.

Tight, painful muscles are a primary factor in fibromyalgia.

Magnesium is needed to release muscle contractions. Without Mg, tensed muscles stay in a contracted state.

Mg supplementation is an established treatment for muscle cramps, as well as an established treatment for fibromyalgia.

Mg is a needed co-factor for vitamin D utilization, meaning that a lack of Mg can cause vitamin D to be unavailable to the body. The result is that a Mg deficit could, in turn, cause vitamin D deficiency symptoms. Magnesium supplementation is sometimes needed to treat rickets that have not been responsive to vitamin D or calcium treatment.
