Tremor
Okay, good, that makes it unlikely that your tremor is due to a seizure.
Tremors may be caused by medications and other substances that stimulate the nervous system. Examples include:
- Certain medications for asthma, such as albuterol
- Pseudoephedrine , as found in many cold remedies
- Antipsychotic medications, such as chlorpromazine
- Caffeine
- Cocaine
Do you take any of these? Did you start taking a new medication just before your tremor began?
