Do any of you experience this? I think it's just muscle fatigue but it's getting worse as I get older. Happens every time I do yard work, usually after weed whacking or hedge trimming.

Lasts for several hours and it's annoying as hell. My arm shakes like I have Parkinson's disease.

 

[bender]

It's probably muscle fatigue. Try increasing your water intake.

 

[MrA]

Probably a question for your doctor and not a video game forum, but could be nerve damage

 

[IntentionalPun]

It's probably arm AIDS.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

it could be many things like dehydration or low blood sugar (does it go away after eating?)
so you should just ask a doctor instead of strangers on gaf.

Check this list and see if your diet checks off enough boxes. Could be low on magnesium, who knows. We never think of this stuff until weird things happen, like vitamin C and gum health for example. I also recommend upping your water intake. You know if you're hydrated depending on pee color

I'm not asking for medical advice. I'm asking if others experience it. Reading comprehension, big guy.

Can't say it ever happened to me.
And as someone else said, it could be a neuropathy, ie nerve damage. It's definitely something you should get checked.

I had leg spasms after doing some long ass hikes I wasn't used to

And then what big guy?
Oh topher experiences it too?!

there's still a thousand and one things it could be, so there's no way to tell if others' experience is actually the same as yours; ask a doctor.

Shaking (or spasms) has nothing to do with Parkinson's. It definitely isn't an indication of that.

 

[nush]

Might as well have a wank.

It's just a discussion. You're the one coming in ass mad about it. But that's on brand for you. Hope you can workout whatever has your panties in a bunch 24/7, big guy.

I used to run cross country and would get wicked calf cramps. Figured my forearm fatigue would improve over time through muscle growth as bodies tend to adapt, but it's the same every week. I go to drink a glass of water and it's like a cartoon the way I'm shaking lol.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

You're the one coming in ass mad about it.

Guess suggesting a doctor is that triggering for you if that's how you read it.

The truth hurts.

 

[Liljagare]

Could be a number of vitamine deficiancies, low fluids, muscle fatigue from overuse, nerve strain from repetitive motions with tools, or low blood sugar.

Warm relaxing shower and liquid up, see if that helps?

My suggestion is to get a health check-up if you experience this from simple yard work though.

 

[ScorpionX]

Sounds like muscle fatigue to me, does it also happen when you lift weights?

 

[Rentahamster]

The only uncontrollable arm shaking that I do is on purpose.

 

[AJUMP23]

Go ask a doctor not a forum of game enthusiasts.

Also it is a sign of psychosis.

 

[Punished Miku]

Labs, EMG study.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

It's probably arm AIDS.

That's what happens when someone plays bum darts.

One finger in, one finger shakes.

One hand in, one hand shakes.

If it's an arm.... well.....

 

[p_xavier]

Wot. B6 or B12 vits defiency?

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Might be early symptoms of MS.

Might be early symptoms of MS.

Also, getting tests for that in your 40s is good.

 

[Nocty]

this can happen for a number of reasons but most common is bad hydration, leading to or adding to overtrained muscles (I used to get shakey legs after intense leg workouts and cycling home from work).

I start my day every day now with fresh squeezed orange juice and coocnut water mixed together witch a pinch of sea salt.

Pretty much gives you everything you need for the day hydration wise, as well as a ton of potassium, vitamin C and other important minerals. Tastes damn nice too...

 

[HoodWinked]

probably in your head, psychosomatic

 

[near]

Hi, I'm a doctor by profession. This is actually fairly common and I have treated many patients at my clinic. The solution is to simply cut off the arm, and there will be no more shaking.

Thank you,

Dr. near

[Mohonky]

Am a nurse, can confirm this is most likely the case. Sorry

It's probably arm AIDS.

But seriously its most likely dehydration, fatigue or the vibrations from the equipment, or all the above.

[tamago84]

Pretty sure chatgpt could give some direction. Electrolytes, water, or something else

 

[RJMacready73]

That's a doctor question not a forum question but in my medical opinion I'd say it's possessed and needs removed

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Almost certainly Ebola.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

Stop taking tylenol.

 

[Trilobit]

It's probably arm AIDS.

I wouldn't go that far. Maybe forearm chlamydia. At most forearm gonorrhea.
