Do your hands shake?

[clanner]

yes my hands shake, but every once in awhile if I sit down fr an hour or more my body starts twitching, my head usually shakes and snaps to the left real fast.

more recently it feels like i've been getting shocked when my body was grounded. feels funny for a second. then goes away.

+1 on the caffiene...

or after a major adrenaline rush... which happens about 2-3 times each week at work... *L*

Iused to shake all the time... I think it was linked to ADHD.. now that I'm on meds, I don't do it as much, since the hyperactivity is "controlled"

 

[Munjibunga]

No.

My hands are always shaking. I'm pretty sure that it's related to my ever-constant back pains. I'm only 15 and I already have a bad back. I don't even want to think about what it will be like as I get older -_-.

 

[Steph Dawe]

No.

But my legs shake when I'm nervous. Just last night, when I was playing for the Premier of SA, I got a really bad case of jelly legs.

Man, I thought I was going to fall off that goddamned stage.

 

[Michael Jewels]

No.

My hands are absolutely rock-solid.

Do you think I would be cutting diamonds in Denmark on the weekends if they shook?

My hands actually shook for a few days when I was in the peak of the early cancer phase (before treatment began). At first I thought it might have been old age or something, 'cause there's a history of Parkinson's on my mom's side of the family. But since the chemo, that whole thing has gone away and I can play the bass again, without too many problems. My new six-string fretless is on the way, it's a one-of-a-kind custom instrument from Ken Bebensee, and I wouldn't be able to play an instrument like that if my hands were shaking all the time. That few days of the shakes actually scared the hell out of me, I was pretty depressed there for a while. It wasn't just the hands either, there were other body parts involved too D). But things are looking up right now, based on the latest tests (even though I'm still getting sick on a regular basis), it seems that the painful treatments are actually working. I don't know what would happen if I couldn't play the bass anymore, that would be a major loss in my life. Right now, I can play for maybe an hour a day, before I get tired. Six or eight months ago, I used to play for about four hours a day. And it's a hell of a scary thing when you can't twirl a note on the fretless anymore.

Do your hands ever start shaking for no reason?

Only when I have to confront the ex...

 

[MJ5150]

Mine do when my blood sugar gets out of whack. I can always tell when I better stop immediately and get something to eat....my hands start shaking.

My hands have always shook since I was a kid. I asked my doctor about it about 2 years ago and she told me it was a benign tremor. Since then I have only come across one other person that had one.

At a glance, I thought this thread title was about handling snakes.

Yes, I've handled snakes before, but No, my hands do not shake.

 

[Davidoc]

My hands do shake a bit, yes.

 

[Ericman197]

This has been scientifically proven to be caused by too much...

 

[embellisher]

I normally shake other peoples hands.

 

[keb]

Only when Peter Gabriel orders me to.


"SHAKE THOSE HANDS!

SHAKETHOSEHANDS!!"

 

[Johnny Fila]

No.
Sometimes my thumb will twitch for a short duration.

 

[Fretless5verfan]

I have the neck twich problem too. My hands shake, but my doc tells me it's from minor nerve damage from my martial arts competitions and training (most likely).

 

[Floating teetH]

I shake my fists and say "energy!"

like this

*shakes fists
"Energy!"

and then my reference to something went unrecognised.

 

[snapple]

I notice that if you put any body part in a weird position or rest it on a certain angle it will shake like crazy. I've mastered this when it comes to my feet.

I actually have something of a twitch, similiar to what clanner's got. 'cept I jolt when I'm nervous or stressed. And there's no electric shock feeling.

For the guys that hands do shake are you cigarette smokers?
