Hey guys. I've been having the exact same problem for the last couple of months and I'm extremely scared about all of this. Did anyone found a possible solution? The shakiness is present in my whole body, whenever I move, whenever I lift my arm or leg and whenever I move my neck or bend over. It's getting really frustrating and making me anxious. I've done blood tests, an MRI of my brain and cervical spine and EMNG. Everything fine, except I have two herniated discs in the cervical spine, but the doctors claim that they have nothing to do with my symptoms. Hope we'll soon know what the problem is.
I have been having the same thing for a year. But now i foud out how to stop it. I am 15 year old i was masturbating for 2 years and i stopped masturbating almost 5 monts back and now i don’t face this problem anymore.
It could be from weak muscles, vitamin deficiency, issue with your spine, issue with your central nervous system, thyroid issue, etc. You need to see your doctor about this as you have to get blood tests, maybe an MRI. No one here can give you an accurate answer as everyone is different. See your doctor.
I am a healthy 28 y/o female, and I have the exact same problem. Additionally, I have had insomnia, and "hyperthyroid-like" symptoms. I have had a negative MRI head, negative thyroid, HIV, stool culture, lead, basic metabolic profile, WBC, lymes, etc. So no reason turned up yet. It is very reassuring to see other people have the same problem, because we can't all be suffering from some rare and deadly disease! Will update when I find out, but I'm really starting to think that this is just the way I internalize stress. Never feel stressed, but my body acts like I am. I have had this problem for 4 months.
my symptoms are also same and i also have same issue of thyroid. my TSH is barly there. but it is also linked to vitamin D3. my D3 level is also in points around .2. hence tried to take D3 but D3 level does not increase. hence shaking in shoulder muscles still persists
did you sort it out ? I have similar problems , i was wondering bout posture stuff
Hello All. Read this thread with great interest. So was wondering if anyone had an answer yet. Exact same symptoms. No pain. Well described by Jimtrelly's post as like when sitting on toilet with legs on tiptoes and one jitters uncontrollablly. These judders happen in arms,and legs mainly, but also back and neck. All only in certain ranges of movements. Balance I find is very difficult - i.e. going downstairs, on uneven ground, putting foot into shoe etc as it's as if there is a small range where I am not in control of what my foot is doing so it suddenly jerks.
Anyone/experts out there who have solved this? If not we must be able to get our heads together to see if we have anything in common to help detect what it is. .Other than this I'm a fit 48 female, had all the tests - MRI on head, neck and spine; nerve conduction. All clear. - So you start to think they think you are a fraud !!
Don't drink much water - but never have done; desk job so don't move that much some days. Not overweight. Not stressed - other than this !! Shins always cold. That's all I can think of.
If anyone has got it sorted please do share.........
Hi guys,
I'm a 29 year old male and I have had the same problems for a few months. The shaky muscles have developed into loss of fine coordination and slight clumsiness now. I have tested everything there is: MRI, EMG, thyroid, sugar, magnesium, CK, etc. and nothing has ever been found. I'm out of ideas now and was wondering if anyone here has found a root cause? (Other than the ones I have mentioned above)
Ps my old name on here was jimtrelly, the previous 2 posts directly above this are mine, sorry for the confushion
OK GUYS, I COME WITH GREAT NEWS! I figured out what the problem is after months of this shaking going so, i desided to make this post because as you can see from my previous reply in July (read the post just above this one) I was also looking for answers to my very scarey symptoms and NO ONE ON HERE HAD AN ANSWER FOR ME, JUST GUESSES, so my hope is that this post can help someone and eleaveat this stress of wondering like I did. Once these symptoms start all you do all day for months is stress over what it is. you begin to think "could I have ms? Could I have parkinsons, I'm way to young and healthy for that to make any sence". I began with symptoms back in April 2015 (the shaking like I had been exercising for hours, or did a massive leg day at they gym). So it took me 5 months to find out what was going on. I finally went to my doctor and told him of all my sympotoms which included being warm/hot all the time when I usually would have been cold, extra sweating, heart felt like I could hear it in my head, my heart would pound super hard sometimes (you know the difference between normal and the way it sometimes pounds now), also in my case I kept losing weight without even trying. My doctor told me he wanted to run a thyroid panel on be (blood work) and when the results came back my thyroid levels were through the roof, i was told I had HYPERTHYROIDISM (not HYPOhyroidism, don't confuse the two), and the diagnosis was from graves disease. This condition sounds WAY worse than it actually is but, luckily it is very easily treated. You have three options, first is to surgically have the thyroid removed (did not want that one lol), second was to get on antithyroid meds which release your symptoms quickly but give other risks, or your third option which is thyroid ablashion (destruction of the thyroid gland via radioactive iodine) it's a pill you take one time maybe twice. I choose radioactive iodine (it's not dangerous if you are wondering lol, I know I thought it was to lol). Basically I'll I will have to do is take 1 little pill every morning to give me the hormone T4 since I no longer have a thyroid. T4 has a very long half life so it takes months for symptoms to resolve so when the T4 finally degrades in your body and you levels lower back to normal ranges you will feel normal again and be able to do all the things you used to do! I hope this helps. Go get tested by your doctor for hyperthyroidism, you will know the answer in a week! Good luck!
Yeah, I have the same issue, it started about 2 or 3 months ago, I stopped working out to heal my arm and I also stopped eating most meals per day. I was down to 1 meal per day for a while, since then I have started working out and eating 3+ meals again, but I cant get the shakes to go away, I checked my blood sugar and its not that. The type of shaking/jittering I get is like if you sit on a toilet and place your feet on there tippy toes and SLOWLY lower your heal to the ground. That jurkyness is what I experience in my lower back and legs when I just slightly bend over. I also experience it to a smaller degree in my arms when I prop myself up (positions where you brace yourself with 1 arm in from of the mirror while shaving.) I called my DR and im waiting to hear what he has to say
I hv the same problems,i do excercise daily ,but makes not different to me.where should i go ? Who is the specialist for this treatment? I am so worried about it, plz sombody guide me
Check for MS..that is what I was diagnosed with in July and I have the same symptoms
has anyone figure this out? Having same problem and seeing neurologists and having multiple tests.
Hello, i realize this is an old post, but i have the same symptoms you had here. I wondered if you ever figured it out?
Sorry guys, I haven't figured it out. I was really only concerned because I noticed it quite a bit when doing my sport. Now that I don't do it anymore I don't notice it as much.
I'm having the same problem on my arms and hands. Did you figure out what could be?
Hi -i have a similar thing and its getting worse gradually. Do you have any more information on what it is? I get a sort of juddering, jerky and not smooth movement when raising my leg, when walking down stairs, and when I stop and try to hold a position like a squat my legs will start shaking as though I have held that position for a long time. Any help in diagnosing would really be appreciated as I am worrying about this a lot, thanks,
Hey, how are you going with the shaking thing? have you solved it?
Haha, yes I did come here, but I was hoping someone had a quick fix. I was wondering if it sounded like some kind of vitamin deficiency or something I could fix on my own.
I've always been a bit of a hypochondriac though, but thanks for your advice. I'll definitely let my doctor know at my next check-up if it's still happening.
Well, it must be somwhat of a concern because you sought recommendations from MH.
I would recommend consulting your physician about this as this is NOT normal. I am not certain if this is something serious brewing or not. Best to check it out though. No one can diagnose or treat you over the internet.
Definitely doesn't sound like anything to do with dehydration.
Carrying any extra weight=overweight.
Well, I was a bit hasty about the stress thing not causing it. I noticed today it definitely affected the shakiness in the morning when I first woke up.
As for the changes, I'm going to try getting more sleep, drinking more water, attempting to not stress out over things, etc.
I dance around ten hours a week in different styles like ballet, jazz, etc. I have not injured myself or anything though.
Carrying extra weight? I'm not quite sure what you mean. I don't have to carry any heavy objects around and I'm not overweight.
I haven't told my parents because I really don't find it to be that big of a deal. The muscle shaking is only really noticeable to me some times when I'm dancing. No one else has noticed and it doesn't affect my everyday activities.
Imaging of your spine, i.e. MRI of the spine in your case, I would recommend an MRI of your Cervical Spine as well as your Lumbar spine. The Neurologist can do more extensive testing if warranted.
How many hours are you dancing and what kind of dance are you doing?
Are you carrying any extra weight?
What "lifestyle" changes are you making?
You DEFINITELY need to see a physician especially if this has been going on for weeks even if it ISN'T constant. Please go and get checked.
What do your parents think; I just noticed you were only 17. Please discuss this with them as well.
Thanks for your response. However, I'd like to try and make some lifestyle changes before seeing a doctor, as this really only bothers me when I dance. Anything you could suggest that would help rule out some things? I'm going to try drinking water more often.
And just out of curiosity, why spinal imaging?
