why is my body trembling i'm 35 yrs old i'm healthy i don't drink smoke or do drugs could dehydration make you tremble or lack of vitamin? what is it

Accepted Answer

Consider these : Some patients have tremors in older family members and may inherit "familial essential tremors".  Hyperthyroidism could cause this, and some medications cause tremors.  Unlikely, that dehydration can cause, but some b vitamin deficiencies could do this, and sometimes, other central nervous problems exist.  Check with your doctor.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

Dehydration: Depending on how severe and what caused the dehydration.  Fluids are the treatment of choice.  If due to diarrhea or vomiting, often fluids like pediasure, gatorade, etc can help replace vital salts that are lost.  If very severe, go to the emergency room for full evaluation.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Possible: Both Prozac (fluoxetine) and Trazodone can cause decreased libido as side effects. You are taking two antidepressants. Not clear why this is necessary. Suggest you discuss with prescribing doctor to review these meds and consider lower dose(s). I hope this helps. Best wishes.

Question 6

day 4 heart skipping and palpitation stress test came back good and im not dehydrated what could be wrong? no alcohol, caffeine or drugs. on monitor

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: You say you're on a monitor. I am assuming the results are not back yet. If the skip beats and palpitations occur while you are on the monitor then a record is made and your cardiologist should be able to get a better idea of what is going on. Many have ways for you to mark when you have symptoms, too.  An electrophysiologist (heart rhythm specialist) should be able to help.

Accepted Answer

Dehydration : Dehydration can occur easily when a patient has an infection.  An infection can cause a fever, even when the patient isn't always aware, and the skin flushes, with more fluid evaporating.  In addition, if a patient isn't feeling well, they often don't drink or eat as much as they typically do.  Patient's who are on other medications, including cardiovascular medications, can be more sensitive to the effects of dehydration.  Signs of allergic reaction  to a medication usually includes rash that is usually hives, swelling, itching, or shortness of breath.

Question 8

would extended/accumulated moderate dehydration be tx'd the same as more severe short term sxs?

Accepted Answer

Depends : It depends upon the cause of the chronic dehydration and what your electrolyte abnormalities are, if any.

Question 9

what can cause dehydration?

Accepted Answer

Two main issues: Hydration is your state of water balance. The human body is made up of so many fluid/water based systems that poor hydration can cause the system to fail.Dehydration is caused by 2 main issues:doesn't come in or goes out too fast. If you have no fluid intake, over time your body pees, perspires or breathes  off fluid.If you vomit, pee or poo away your fluids you get dry.Either produces dehydration.

Question 10

how can i avoid dehydration?

Accepted Answer

Lots of Fluids : Drink lots of fluids especially clear liquids in small amounts frequently. Most doctors recommend 8-12 glasses (each glass is of about 8 ounces or 250 ml) per day. U may need more if u r very active with lots of exercise or running. Also if outside temperature is over 100F fluid requirement increases because of insensible losses. Water is the best fitness drink but you have so many choices.
