What causes fingers tremors and muscle twitches in woman?
Patient: Hi I am a 35 year woman whom is experiencing finger tremors and muscle twitches. Furthermore, I experience off and on night sweats and fatigue and constipation.The worst is the hand/finger tremors and the muscle twitches for I hope no one notices.I have been to a neurologist approx. 2 years ago because that was my first experience with the tremors.MRI brain was performed which was normal Any ideas what may be causing this because no one said what is causing these symptoms Doctor: Hello,I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.Looking at your problems I am thinking of following possibilities01) Over active thyroid( hyperthyroidism) : All your symptoms are consistent with this condition. A thyroid profile test will help in diagnosis. I02) Alcohol abuse/withdrawal: If you are alcoholic03) Liver failure: Liver diseases also causes tremors in hands, constipation etc. A battery of tests like blood investigations (CBC,ESR etc) Liver function tests, USG abdomen will help in diagnosis.A MRI of brain rules out any kind brain related problems. It is advisable to consult your doctor and get yourself examined for above conditions.Additionally, avoid mental stress if you have any. Include fruits,vegetables in your diet.Hope this answers your question.You can ask any followup question or any other queries. I'll be happy to help.Wish you good healthRegards,Dr.Prathap Kumar
