When I am texting, writing, or grasping something, I have like this nervous jerking of my hands. Like in texting it makes me simultaneously hit extra letters, or drop the phone. I drop my drinks and it's almost as if I just throw them?
What medicine might have the side effects of jerking in my hands?
