Body trembling slightly

I have been haing slight body tremors. Noticed it in my hands then noticed when I stand still you can see my shorts move slightly. It is rythmic like da da da. I have been anxious a lot lately and taaking Xanax occassionally.
Had a MRI of my head and showed only a spoted migraine which have had for years. Blood work showed no diabetes or thyroid problems.
Could this trembling be from my anxiety?

I have had an MRI and there is no Parkinsons or anything. The migraine problem is not severe migraines.
My doctor has seen the trembling. They have done blood work and it is good.
I have also been taking Phenegren for a while almost daily because my nerves bother my stomach.
What do I need to go to the neurologist for? What would they be looking for?
I also have issues with my spine.

It is good that you do not have Diabetes and Thyroid abnormalities.
For your anxiety there would be some trembling/tremors occasionally.
Taking of Xanax(alprazolam is not adviced as a self medication) because it causes physical dependence and has abuse liability.
You should go to a neurologist and should connect him with the migraine you have and also assessed  yourself properly (if this tremors are not because of anxiety!)
Xanax does not cause tremors/trembling
Best of luck and go ahead for the treatment.

Anxiety?....YES!! Could be something else too! I would look into this seriously. Have you ever had a seizure? Has your Dr. ever seen this? If not....Video tape it happening! Take the video to the Dr. It is amazing how they will listen when they actually see what you are talking about!
