    Ok well last night I smoked like 2 hoots from a pipe and I started shaking a little then it became worse and my left arms muscles started convulsing fairly badly. This isnt the first time this has happened to me and last time I ended up in the hospital for a panick attack. This time I was calm cause I knew nothing bad would come of it. When I was in the hospital last time I asked the doctor what the shaking was about and he said the usual bullshit "thats a side effect of marijuana, but the funny thing is I smoked a full joint to my head 20 minutes ago and im not shaking at all. Now ive noticed sometimes my head shakes involuntarelly even when im sober, so my question is, what do you guys think it may be. The weed, or maybe the weed is triggering an underlying problem I may have like epilepsy or parkensens etc.

    Oh yeah another thing to consider is the fact that before it happened yesterday I had drank like 6 pop in the space of two hours. So maybe it was just the bad mixture of caffiene(upper) and bud(downer)

    Cannabis is currently being researched in studies hoping to have it help stop epilepsy, due to its interneuron-blocking system, so I doubt it's "Triggering an underlying problem". However, you should go to your local doctor anyway, not mentioning Cannabis, and ask him to run a diagnosis of sorts.

    Maybe it was all the sugar and caffeine in the drinks? But you could go down for a check up or something at the doctor.

    Yeah I had an appointment with a psychiatrist today for my bad social anxiety, and he said the medication he wants to put me on may cause tremors, and I brought it up and he said that tremors are caused by social anxiety and the weed just surfaces the anxiety on occassion.

    I don't know why that is man. Maybe you have a nerve system problem. It could be affecting that and making you do anything.
