What causes body tremors?
Patient: Hi ..My father(age 53) is suffering with tremors in the whole body (hands, legs, head) and some times not able to walk also. We have consulted 1) Neurologist and took a MRI scan as he advised but he said nothing problem from his side and advised to use medication ZAPIZ and TOPAMAC. 2) After that consulted Endocrinologist as my father Thyroid profile results were bit high and He advised us to use CIPLA 40 after observing results of Thyroid T3, T4 ,TSH , Free T3,T4 , Thyroid scan. 3) As we had doubt on leg bones and it would be reason for tremor in legs, we have consulted Orthologist, he took some x-ray to both legs and gave some medicine to strength legs. After consultation of all these specialists and as they advised, My father is using...ZAPIZ, CIPLA LA 40 for tremors. After using these medicine , tremors in the body is not reduced and sometimes it is increasing because of this medicine as per my father s observation daily. Please advice how to proceed. Doctor: I would like to ask you some questions:1. Are these tremors happen at rest or while doing some activity?2. Is there any slowing in daily activity along with tremor?Tremogram can be done to look for frquency of tremors as different types of tremor have different frequencies. Also need clinical evaluation about any feature of parkinsoism.
