it seems like you have a cerebellar disorder. Cerebellar disorder can cause both intentional tremors and drooling.

Your question is too narrow. You mentioned myoclonus (a.k.a. Restless Legs Syndrome), but, are you taking diet pills to lose weight? Are you a caffeine-aholic? Are you addicted to drugs? Are you an alcoholic? See, the problem is, few if any of the yahooligans answering questions on this board are doctors. You need to make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. In the meantime, keep a written log of when the feeling of uneasiness and agitation occurs, what you are experiencing both physically and mentally will help your doctor in his assessment. Best wishes to you and I hope you feel better soon.

Well, nice question really.\n\nDiabetes and tremors could be seen in two contexts.\n\n1.   Diabetes causing tremors itself.\n\n2.   A diabetic getting tremors due to super-imposed other condition.\n\nWell, for first context: Diabetics normally do not have tremors. Tremors in a patient suffering from diabetes alone could be due to "hypo-glycemia" - low blood glucose. Other than that, there is no other reason as to why a diabetic would get tremors.\n\nNow for the second context, it might be some other disorder in addition to diabetes thats causing tremors. This could be as simple a disorder as "anxiety". Most people, when anxious, get tremors and thats almost normal.\nHowever, it could be some other disorder such as disorder of thyroid, brain (Parkinsons), etc.\n\nHaving seen these two contexts, it is also possible for a diabetic to have tremors due to NATURAL reasons. This would include ageing and benign familial tremor. (tremor which runs in families for no obvious reason). \n\nI hope that answers your question.

I know this sounds insane but we have a medical column written by Dr. Gott (I think) in our daily paper.  He has published numerous letters from people who put a bar of soap under their sheets and it stops restless leg syndrome.  My mother-in-law was visiting from Montana a couple of years ago and was complaining about her RLS so I showed her one of the articles.  She is a very skeptical person but she tried it and now swears by it. She mentions it every time she visits.  Worth a shot, right?

Don't be afraid to see a doctor. There could be a number of explanations, some more serious than others, but it definately warrants investigation. The last thing you want is leaving something too late for effective treatment.\n\nThere is such a thing as early onset Parkinson's, but 18 would still be incredibly early. Painful tremor or spasms can be a side effect of withdrawal from benzodiazapines, could be an indicator of MS or Motor Neurone Disease or the result of spinal injury (possibly even whiplash). It might even be a form of Tourettes.

This can sometimes be caused by eye fatigue or strain. In many cases, too much caffine or other stimulants can have the same result. Try cutting down to one pot of coffee a day, and taking quick 1-2 minute breaks from computer work every 20-30 minutes. There is also a medical condition, called Blepharospasms, that can cause involuntary eye muscle movement or twitching. Blepharospasms can be treated by Botox. Hope this helps!

Another reason could be you have simply had too much caffeine and/or not enough sleep.  If I drink too much coffee and eat chocolate, my eye twitches.

Well, the commonest cause of this is intoxication with certain medications. In cases where it doesn't go away in a few weeks, it could be "Horner's Syndrome", or it could be "Myasthenia Gravis".\n\nA Dr. would have to help you with this determination.  If it continues more than 6 weeks. It could be a sign of nerve damage, or a neurological disease.\n\nHORNER'S SYNDROME:\n\nHorner syndrome is a relatively rare disorder characterized by a constricted pupil (miosis), drooping of the upper eyelid (ptosis), absence of sweating of the face (anhidrosis), and sinking of the eyeball into the bony cavity that protects the eye (enophthalmos). These are the four classic signs of the disorder. \n\nThe congenital, and more rare, form of Horner syndrome is present at birth but the cause is not known. Most often, Horner syndrome is acquired as a result of some kind of interference with the sympathetic nerves serving the eyes. The underlying causes can vary enormously, from a snake or insect bite to a neck trauma made by a blunt instrument.\n\nMYASTHENIA GRAVIS:\n\nWeakness in specific muscles, problems with the nerves that move the eyes, drooping eyelid, or double vision, are the beginning symptoms of Myasthenia Gravis in two-thirds of patients. The severity of weakness fluctuates during the day, usually being least severe in the morning and worse as the day progresses, especially after prolonged use.

A fasciculation (or "muscle twitching") is a small, local, involuntary muscle contraction (twitching) visible under the skin arising from the spontaneous discharge of a bundle of skeletal muscle fibres. Fasciculations have a variety of cause, the majority of which are benign.\n\nConditions\nThe most common cause of persistent fasciculations is benign fasciculation syndrome. \nWerdnig-Hoffman disease \npoisoning by organophosphates \n\nMedications\nOther risk factors may include the use of anticholinergic drugs over long periods—in particular, ethanolamines such as Benadryl, used as an antihistamine and sleep aid, and Dramamine for nausea and motion sickness. Persons with BFS may experience paraesthesia shortly after taking such medication, then hours later as it wears off (especially upon awaking), fasciculation episodes begin.\n\nStimulants can cause fasciculations directly. These include caffeine, pseudoephedrine (Sudafed®), and albuterol/salbutamol (Proventil®, Combivent®, Ventolin®). Medications used to treat attention deficit disorder often contain stimulants as well, and are common causes of benign fasciculations.\n\nTreatment\nInadequate magnesium intake can cause fasciculations, especially after a magnesium loss due to severe diarrhea. Over-exertion is another risk factor for magnesium loss. As many as 80% of the population does not get the recommended daily amount of magnesium; this may be a common cause. Treatment is with supplements or increased intake of foods rich in magnesium, especially almonds and other nuts, and bananas. Ironically, magnesium supplements may result in diarrhea and more magnesium loss.\n\n---------\n\nOccasionally, your eyelid may twitch at random. This involuntary twitching of the eyelid muscle usually lasts less than a minute. But it can be bothersome. The cause of eyelid twitching isn't known. However, it's often associated with fatigue and stress. You may be able to relieve the twitching by gently massaging the affected eyelid.\n\nAn eyelid twitch is usually harmless. Rarely, a twitching eyelid can be a symptom of a muscle or nerve disease. But if that is the case, it's usually accompanied by other symptoms.

my father just passed away May 1,dopamine is to control the shaking and tremors Mussel movement in Parkinson's disease patients. Yet, I had just seen a new report on  CNN from a neurosurgeon in Las Vegas. They did not know until recently that it also affect the behavioral. You two trans motors for mussel movement or on the outer side of the behavioral motor and there for when the dopamine cross over it can cause a compulsive behavioral problem. There were two of this neurosurgeon's patients that had compulsive gambling to come on after starting to take the Leve-Dopa and lost lots of money (but it can be other things that they take compulsive) so there for the Dr. went to checking and he had 12 patients that had the same pattern,so therefor he had to take these patients off the Leve-Dopa. Be careful and God Bless you. Let me add this. Talk to your Dr., But I do know that in recent studies the vitamin COQ10 is suppose to be great for early Parkinson's Diseas patients. It's also great for the circulartory system, the heart. Don't let you Dr. discourage you from this vitamin. Get you pharmaciest, Dr. or Alternative Medicene person to cross reference ALL of your medications. And don't just get one opinion. WEBMD,the are alot of places to research medication..From what I can remember an early detection of Parkinson's you shoul take 300 to work up to 1200mg of COQ10 a day. If you do start taking this after cross refercing the medications you are on and it's ok. Say you start taking 300mg of COQ10 and you feel tired of worse, don't stop taking in vitamin.....just cut the dose back and go at a more gradual approach until you work up to the recommended dose. I was a caregiver for both of my parents and researched a lot of stuff. Of course my mother's cancer and heart were to far gone. And Daddy had Parkinson's for over 25 years. My father had no surgery, moved around until the day he passed away. My 1st cousin was diagnosed at 33,now47 had 5 surgery's and barely gets by. If he undoes his batteries on the right he has no control what so ever pm the left, if he undoes the batteries on the left he has no control on the right. I seen my 69 year old father able to still move and talk after going for a while as my cousin can only go for so long. Again, check with your Dr. before you do anything. And always second and third opinions and other info helps. God Bless you

It sounds like "hypnogogic jerks".  These are also called "myoclonic jerks".\n\nSee:\n\nhttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&rls=RNWE,RNWE:2004-20,RNWE:en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=%22hypnagogic+jerks%22.&spell=1

I spent years going to doctors and finally from a support group online learned to see a movement disorder specialist neurologist.I also have essential tremor and was so relieved when he told me I had cervical dystonia, finally a diagnosis.  I started on increased medication, (mysoline) and botox shots the next day.  The botox works wonders for me.  The pain went away, pretty much in about a month. Have you tried it?  It is very expensive if you do not have insurance, but there are other ways to get it paid for.  Sorry the dbms did not work for you, I have heard that it is awesome when it does.

yes. the dizziness causes blackouts . not spondilytis itself

These minor tics/tremors often are associated with high stress (little sleep, busy schedule, increased caffeine) and often will resolve once you are a more even keel.  \n\nIf none of the above applies to you, then you might want to go to your family physician to have a more thorough evaluation.  Not to overly concern you but neurologic disorders like MS can manifest in odd ways such as what you described...unlikely but possible.\n\nGood luck.

Does she has anyone in her family that suffers essential tremors? How old is she? If so she might be having some neurological diosrder, but a lot of shaking "for nothing" can go on stress, fear - anxiety. If it happens during the social situations it must be that she is having social anxiety....try noticing details, when it happens - when she is calm at home, when she is out, which situations makes it more, is it all the time? That all could be parametars for what she has. All the best!

The precise cause of the twitching is unknown, and, in fact, it's not known if it's a disease of the motor nerves, the muscles, or the neuromuscular junction. However, anxiety is cleary a major contributing factor in many cases, and a high level of psychological stress appears to be a factor in others. Another factor that seems to be common in many cases is a history of regular strenuous exercise. Attention deficit disorder or a related disorder may be a contributing factor, and people with essential tremor appear to have a greater than normal likelihood of developing BFS. In addition, there are likely other genetic and environmental factors that make the patient more susceptible to Twitching.

all of the above are true..\ncould be triggered by neurologic conditions, muscle fatigue, stimulants, hypoglycemia and so on.  \nIf you experience it after using the involved muscle group, probably fatigue.  \n\nParkinson's causes what's called rest tremor.  It trembles while resting but trembling goes away when one starts moving around.  That's just one of the example.\n\nIf you experience it often, you should consult your family physician to rule out anything serious.
