Hello.
These should be Essential Tremors. ET is known to occur without any apparent cause. ET is also known to be a familial disease. Do you recall anyone of your family having similar symptoms?
Essential tremors are typically around 8 Hz. Which means the tremor frequency is 8 movements per second. You can not measure it very easily.
Essential tremors are benefited by anti anxiety drugs.
