I just recently developed a new symptom. Shaky hands. Never had this before. Came on about two weeks ago.

Is this a lyme symptom, or maybe related to something else? I was wondering if perhaps I developed renal failure from all the abx I was taking. I know shakiness can be a symptom of renal failure.

Does anyone else here have shaky hands?

I saw in Buhners neuroborrealis section that he has a few herbs for "tremors", which I think may be shaky hands. So maybe this is a common lyme symptom. I've always had muscle twitching, but this is different.

Buhner recommended sida acuta which I actually happened to have a tincture of. I took some tonight. Maybe I'll take it for a week and see if the symptoms reside. Not sure how long you need to take herbs before you see positive results.

I think in the past I took them for too short of a duration to notice the impact.

The shakiness is typical tick disease. So are the twitchings.

And then there is also the vibrations, as if your body is getting a very mild electrical charge.

Sida acuta can force a herx reaction if you started on a full dose, so if you feel worse tomorrow, that may be why.


I think you should continue to take the herbs that aren't part of your core protocol for 4 weeks beyond your last symptom. Try to be aware of what is happening, or what you were doing, just prior to these symptoms starting as several have found that stress will bring them on. All of this should subside once you are in remission.

I get this also. I thought it was connected to too much Kratom as my tolerance had gone up. Apparently it is not.

I get bad hand tremors from time to time, especially when under "stress" (ie, when carrying something or trying to hold something still). I had to give up my bartending/waitressing job because of it (I kept spilling drinks! lol).

Had variations of this for years. It got real bad 3 years ago it almost cost me my job. I had to do anything for a temp fix. The older beta blocker called propranerolo is also RXed for tremors, in extended realease form. I had to do something so I went with that and it helped. I dont like Rx, but it was that or get worse from being unemployed. I could not even use a mouse with one hand.

That was also the time period my body felt most "toxified" on abx and with candida going on- I dont detox well per genes either. Upper arm and formarm nerve impingment from/and muscle weakness/tightness from this illness also contibutes to the shaky hands. The more physical detoxing I did to my arms also helped the tremors.

Tremors are 75% Better now, still get it slightly though.

Like Astro, I've had variations of tremors for many years - but of course, I've had these infections for longer.

If your hand tremors while you are, say, reaching for something - they are called "intention tremors" - meaning when you reach out (intention to do something), that's when they are the most obvious. I've also had full body tremors - and most everything in between.

They all stopped once I healed from these infections the first time I was in treatment - mainly Lyme and Bart.
