Overview
Tremor is more of a clinical diagnosis. However, some causes of tremors can be identified through laboratory workup, hyperthyroidism, hypoglycemia, hepatic malfunction, renal impairment, Wilsons disease.
Laboratory Findings
Important laboratory findings to navigate are: [1][2]
- Thyroid panel: Hyperthyroidism
- Metabolic panel: Hypoglycemia
- Liver function test: Hepatic encephalopathy
- Renal function test: Renal impairment
- Urinary copper, ceruloplasmin: Wilsons disease
- Heavy metal poisoning (lead)
- CSF examination for oligoclonal IgG in patients suspected with multiple sclerosis
