My Mother Is 83 Yrs. Old. About 2 Weeks Ago
My mother is 83 yrs. old. About 2 weeks ago her hands started shaking. She says she feels like inside
her head is shaking also. She went on an antidepressant and it got worse. They told her to go off
of it and it still didn't return to normal. Now they put her on Lexapro 5 mg. and she said the 1 time she
took it today at 11:00, the shaky feeling got worse. She is also more unbalanced when she is walking or
standing. She has an appt. with the doctor, but not until April 19th. Any suggestions.
