Do you ever just shake? | Arthritis Information

I am fine today. But for about three days i was all shaky. I am not sure. Maybe the swelling makes your muscles unstable? Maybe thyriod issue. But for me it goes away. Somedays i am a shaky person. Not very often. I have had thyriod test before.I am shaky alot especially when lifting a cup to drink from or doing anything that requires my hands to move. LOL

It's annoying and people notice and have made comments. My mom is also that way so maybe in my case it is genetic??? I think it's from inflammation but that's JMO (just my opinion).
Essential tremors known as familial tremors run in families.  They can affect the hands, head and even the voice.  The hands will be still while at rest (unlike Parkinsons Disease patients) and shake when reading for something, pouring coffee, etc.  There are medicines i.e. propranolol that ease symptoms.
AnnI have seen my mother do this. I have never experianced this though.
