Hi there,
I think you may be suffering from tremors. Stress and anxiety both can trigger tremors. Tremors are also a side effect of lamictal.The other common causes of tremors are hyperthyroidism,medications,fever,infection etc.A complete history of your illness, clinical examination and work up is important for confirming the diagnosis. Do consult your doctor and get evaluated. Keep me posted.
Best luck and regards!
