A member asked:
I have pernicious anemia could it be the reason my fingers shake or move without me trying to move them or the nerves n my body jump when lm not movin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Pernicious anemia is usually asymptomatic. There may be some balance issues in rare cases. Numbness and tingling are so non-specific that they can be attributed to a lot of other problems of which pernicious anemia would be way down on the list.
