A member asked:
What causes a person to drop things easily? hard to open things too, writing changes&tremors everywhere( chronic)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
SEVERAL ISSUES: First, the dropping of objects and description of poor grip strength, and writing issues raises thought of median nerve issues, and indeed may be "carpal tunnel sydrome". An EMG test can help. The tremors could be due to medications, hyperthyroidism, and even familial essential tremors, but many other conditions can cause this, including parkinson's, wilson's, lyme, so check with your doc.
