My arms feel really weak and tired and my hands feel jittery and shaky, but they are not visual trembling they just feel shaky and I only notice the slight shaking when I look really closely. I to the doctors to get diagnosed and they said nothing was wrong with me. They performed a neuro test and blood work. Im really scared I could potentially have Parkinsons because my grandma and some of her sisters have it. I also have cases of constipation which I know is another symptom of Parkinsons. What do you all think it could be?

    Hi.

    Have you looked into Essential Tremor??? All neurology tests and bloods will come back clear.. My arms feel really tired and sore and odd pains around my back legs and shoulders, my physio therapist thought it might be fybromyalgia until I mentioned my shaking hands. I've had brain mri, blood tested for copper which could be Wilsons, all blood test and scans normal so diagnosis is Benin Essential Tremor... Not life threatening but can be annoying and limiting... Lots of good Facebook groups with advice, help and support when you need to have a rant etc.. Best wishes
