Possiby: If you live in an endemic area or have been exposed to someone with covid19 or to someone who had travelled to an endemic area, I recommend calling your physician for instructions including getting tested, if possible. Low blood sugar can cause shaking. In the meantime, isolate yourself from others, drink adequate fluids, gargle with warm salt water and take acetaminophen.

Possibly/screen: You have an underlying condition and with these symptoms, I would recommend that you be screened for Coronavirus. Follow your diabetes plan and blood sugar closely. Adhere to a diet for diabetics and please see your PCP.
