what do i need to do

[mamiaelectro]

my body shakes 90% of time, came on in the last 3 months, I'm 47, good health, eat very health,y excerise,. I do have thryroid problems, but numbers are fine now. I have mvp, and i don't know what's going on. I shake when I'm calm, watch tv, wake up shaking, if I get nervouse they get worse or like hold a cup of tea is hard, typing is hard, and writing,.  When I wash dishes I often drop things, like by hands just have a force on surge and sometimes toss sothing im holding. If I hold by dody thought (like stiffing the muscles it makes me feel like i'm not shaking where people see it) it's not that noticiable , but people do see it if i have to be still or having to do things with my hands,  I can't eat around people because I cant hold my fork still, but even though its in my hands the most i feel it in my legs, and trunk, sometimes i look in the mirrow and my whole body is moving, when i thought no one could tell.  My doctor put me on prozac, it is not helping.  If i drink alchole it, will take it away, and zantac.  I don't like either one of these thought, cause I don't know what is the real reason.  I am not drepressed or neverous.  please help me .

my test results  T4  12.9             my THS 0.135
I know this is overactive, and hyper, but my doctor just said it's mostly my nerves, tyroid is not that bad.  I really don't feel like I'm ok,  
Please help

Dr. Lupo isn't on this forum. You need to go back to the expert forum. This is for patients.

Thank you, I am trying to learn all about this, you know I do feel you are right.

My doctor just acts like she doesn't have time for me, I appricate you taking the time
to write me back, and I will go to that link and look.

Thanks,
Lisa

If the doc only tests the T4 and TSH, then time for a new doc.

Your doctor should be testing your FreeT4 and FreeT3 plus TSH.

I don't know the ranges for your T4 test, but your TSH is low and you have hyperthyroid symptoms. Has the doc ever run a thyroid ultrasound or tested you for Graves?

This doctor is clearly ignoring your hyper symptoms and low TSH. Time for a new doc. Here's a list of recommended thyroid docs.
