SI33,

Tremors can be caused by a malfunctioning adrenal system. PCS subjects are often plagued with roller coaster adrenal functions. Very minimal stresses can cause an over-reaction.

I'm a little worried about it since i go back to work in 2 weeks as an ICU nurse and worried about inserting IVs or giving subcutaneous injections. And also really hoping that my patients and my coworkers dont notice it!
My daughter also experienced tremors after her concussion. They start about a month into it and would appear when she was stressed out. The more stressed out she was the worse it would. For the most part (20 months later) - these are gone. I only see them now in extreme stress, now.

Good to hear of her improvement.

I had the tremors for the first few months after my concussion. I think Mark's point about the adrenals malfunctioning was accurate in my case. I rarely get them now unless I am very sick or stressed.

The human body never ceases to amaze me!

Default Tremors
Hi,

I get tremors when I am tired or have had too much stimulus (usually from background noise but also from bright lights). Had really bad episode when a police car passed me and turned on the siren to get through an intersection. Took almost an hour to relax enough for the tremors to subside and to be able to focus again. Hope this helps.

Yes I have them also. They come and go. At times it has made eating harder. What bothers me most is how it has affected my writing.
