What Causes Shivering In Fingers?

Sir, My son has never faced seizure or convalsion but at his age of 15 years, he was facing shievering of fingures at times and after testing EEG, Doctor advised him to take Valprol -CR 300 twice a day. Since then he has been taking this medicine and he has never faced seizure . However if he stops this medicine he faces the problem of fingure shievering. He is a good Mechanical Engineer (BE(Mech), Master of CAD / CAM). He is working as a managerial staff. Please advise whether we can go ahead with his marriage since he is around 29 years of age. Your expert reply is solicited please in a confidential manner. Thanks with regards

Hello,

It is not advisable to stop anti-seizure medications with your decision. An evaluation by the Neurologist and EEG is necessary for this purpose. If the opinion of the Neurologist is to stop medication after such evaluation, the doses should be lowered gradually. If the seizure returns, the medication should be continued.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
