What Causes Shivering Along With Weakness And Dizziness Upon Waking Up?
I am a 76 year old women and a month ago I woke up shaky but I was nt cold and I was weak and felt like I had run a marathon. When standing I had to not move for a minute because I was dizzy. As the day progresses I got worse.I went to a doctor. Still the same.

Hello,
You have not mentioned whether you are on any medications or not. I would advise you to get yourself checked and get a few tests done like ECG and CT scan to rule out any cardiac and neurological conditions. You should also get your blood pressure and blood sugar checked.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
