Accepted Answer

See a physician: You should consult a physician. Who can examine you and run some lab test to rule out other causes of weakness and tremors like anemia  hyperthyroidism and medications.I guess that you may be suffering from dehydration, hypokalemia or hypoglycemia which is causing your symptoms. In the meantime you cut back on all caffeine nicotine and alcohol intake. See your internist for work up asap.

Question 2

Leg pain: There are many other causes for leg pain. No reason to check again. Do yourself a huge favor and quit smoking.

Question 7

how do i tell the difference between shakiness in legs and shakiness in neuropathy.

Accepted Answer

May not be very easy: It sounds like your question is asking the difference between shakiness in the legs due to weakness of the muscles (such as after heavy exercise?) vs. weakness in the legs due to lack of neuronal control or innervation? Your best bet is to get a neurological examination since other things needs to be noted physically and by history before arriving at that sort of conclusion.

Question 8

can smoking marijuana effect the healing of a amputated leg wound a month after it's been closed?

Accepted Answer

Probably little: Smoking is never good for circulation but the potential harms have not been well catalogued and are likely minor

Question 9

how can i tell the difference between shakiness from low blood sugar and from neuropathy in legs?

Accepted Answer

Low sugar: Is potentially dangerous and life threatning, also may be associated with excessive sweating( di aphorisms), shakiness and confusion. Diabetic neuropathy does not give you sweating and usually not shakiness ,but unsteadiness if for eg it involves your lower extremities.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Many symptoms : First u need to see u p CP for evaluation and work up , if no physical finding than yes.
