Semi-serious medical question

[Gwen]

Ok so i have this thing called a "tremor" (i didnt make this up my doctor told me so) and it makes me shake like a car on bad gas. My hands are very unsteady and i play it off on nerves even when im not nervous.
Is this a precursor to parkinsons or am I just a freak? How will i know if i actually get parkinsons?

Im actually not trying to be funny this is true and i dont wanna ask my doctor and look like a moron/

Not a lot, but some.

I had something like that, but then my doctor said to stop drinking so much coffee. It worked.

Are you on any sort of
medication? Psychotropic meds
(like Prozac, Zoloft, etc...)
can sometimes cause tremors.

GWEN - Tremors can occur for a variety of reasons, from medication (as GWEN mentioned), to epilepsy and nuerological disorders.

It's imperative that you go to your doctor - (a nuerologist would be a good place to start), and find out what's going on. Schedule an appointment NOW!
