shaking while sitting still

My husband shakes while he is sitting.  He can be on the computer,watching TV, or duing anything.  He is shaking.  This started about 4 years ago.  It has gotten worse.  He does not going to the doctors office.  I am very concerned about him.  Please help.

I am shaking my leg right now as I type. If this is what he is doing (shaking a limb) it could just be a nervous habbit that he is completly unaware of.

If it is more of a tic like movement then he should probably see a doctor for a referal to a neurologist.

Hi,Your husband needs to see a doctor,and be checked.It could be the start of parkinsons syndrome.However it could be many other things or could be nothing at all.But if he has not done this most of his life and just started 4 years ago,then I would get it checked.Good luck.
