Question About Uncontrollable Shaking Posted: 05-12-05 23:58pm
Hello all - new poster here. :lol:
just wanted to ask a question. Every so
often, i'll start shaking.
Uncontrollably.
And I don't know why. It's a littly
scary, so I wanted to ask.
-i'm in my middle teens and not overweight
or anything. (150 lbs)
-don't do drugs, smoke, drink, nothing.
-i take caffeine a little more than usual
(600 mg a day, maximum)
the shaking has nothing to do with cold, I
checked.
I think it's related to breathing, but i'm
not sure.
It usually happens late at night. (but
i'm almost positive it's not related to
the caffeine, because I gave up caffeine
for lent and it never stopped.)
the shaking is always restricted to my
abdomen and arms, and lasts for periods of
up to ten seconds separated by the same
amount of time.
I'm pretty scared by this, in fact i'm
downright shaken. (har har)
but seriously, if anyone has an answer I
would appreciate it quite a bit.
Thanks in advance,
-canonada

Okay, just another note -
got it again, not five minutes ago. This
time I had to go to the bathroom and I
lost enough motor control I *almost*
fouled myself...
:shock:
definitely not cool... Someone please
tell me what's going on!

Hello, Canonada Posted: 12-21-05 23:18pm
I don't mean to scare you but I have been
shaking in the upper body. It comes and
gos but lasts along time some times. Like
recently it has started friday and still
hasn't stopped. The only time it stops is
when I sleep. I have been to two
nerorulagest and they say stress. So they
come up with what they call converson
disorder. I don't know if that is what
will help you or not. But I have been
searching for going on 3 years know and
still cant find anything that exsplain
what it is. Its like is has a mind of its
own. But best of luck to you.I hope you
find out more on it as well as me. Sorry
again if I scared you . That wasn't what
I intended.

uncontrollable shaking Posted: 05-22-08 18:26pm
For the last approx. 8 months I have
experienced a few episodes where I will my
legs and torso will shake uncontrollably.
The weirdest part of it all is it is
ALWAYS at night when I'm laying in bed and
when it ceases I always have to use the
bathroom. While this episode is happening
I generally don't feel well. My head
feels heavy and I just feel odd. Does
anyone have any idea what may be causing
this?
