the shakes

[Judo]

I'm sorry to hear that TB *hugs* it's always sad to lose a loved one, and especially regretful if it could have been prolonged. I shall definitely see a Dr to avoid misfortune via stubbornity (should so be a word) but yeah TB im the same - ive only been to the Drs over one thing and that turned out to be very serious.

emperor you trying to scare me lol! i like all my extremities just where they are thankyou very much! :O I have to keep a good diet as unfortunately not blessed with the eat whatever genome. No less than 1200 and no more than 1600 calories a day, fish for *at least* 1/3 meals and a multi vitamin pill every morning and no this isn't a 'diet', just a healthy lifestyle choice counterbalance for all the binge drinking. sleep hmmm i do nights and day shifts so I have shittest sleep pattern ever but I don't really get a choice on that as I am a slave to The Man and all that jazz.

hey Byah hows it going? That must have been terrible news to hear and yes instinctive googlitis im sure. Well up until recently I though getting the shakes when you haven't eaten anything was normal but im now finding out that it is not normal, and in fact, most people seem to think justifies charging the every day tax payer whatever extortionate amount per appointment it is. So consider me exempt from blame when your tax comes off this month x 

edit for blocks...
oh roger I think you might be right as I hear arseholitis has negative health effects on those around them, even via the t'internets. What a shame there is no cure at this time.

aww joe you still stalking me <3 yes I may have to cos they are extortionate x

I say get it checked, but only to put your mind at rest. It's almost certainly nothing - I spent a large percentage of my early adulthood worrying that I had various different diseases, and indeed visited the doctor probably more than most people of my age.  Every single time I was told it was nothing serious, and I now realise that the chances of someone in their early 20s having a serious illness are very small indeed.
So yeah, go to the doctor, but don't worry in the meantime, it's highly probable you're absolutely fine.

As ever, Jayzus has the right of it.

Indeed - I'm pretty sure I also had the shakes and rollercoaster energy levels in my 20s. I found that giving up drinking and speed, reducing my caffeine and sugar intake, sorting my diet out, plus eating and sleeping at regular intervals fixed it. In addition all the indigestion and stomach pains (the latter requiring a number of trips to hospital, some involving invasive procedures I could have done without) disappeared too, along with other odd niggles I'm sure.

It is either called being young or getting old. Soon it'll be suppositories and slippers for me. Woo hoo.

The slippers may be harder to absorb up there.

So that's what was going on in all those Beano strips.

Does it go away if you drink?

That's not a trick question - it's one a doc will ask. Because the most common shake is a "familial tremor". Which I have got. And which goes away if you have alcohol in you. And which started in my mid-twenties. And which is harmless, but will get worse so that you have a shaky hand in your 80s.

Good point. I will be sending a letter to the Slipper Manufacturers Association asking them to add a safety notice to all future pairs: Not to be taken rectally.

I get random shakes every now and again but that is due to very heavy binge drinking when I was younger. Listen up kids Heavy drinking is bad for you.

A friend of mine (who is a first aider at work, so he knows what he's talking about) told me the only thing you should put in your bottom are suppositories or your elbow. (hang on he may have been talking about my ears)
