may be due to diabetes

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr XXXXXXX pleased to answer your health related queries
As per your history, it seems that you have diabetic related neuropathy
It might be due to autonomic neuroapthy where fluctuation of BP can lead to shakiness or cerebellar ataxia
uneasy in your stomach may also be due to autonomic neuroapthy, here, because of slow movement of intestine, food remains in the stomach for a long time.
you need to see a diabetologist and neurologist to take care of these issue.
Hope this will help
Take care
