Hi,

Your symptoms can be due to many reasons, but since you are a smoker, it does make sense to first exclude any lung disease. In my opinion, you should see a doctor and get some tests, especially a chest X-ray and pulmonary function tests, done. Tremors in hands are more common in people with alcohol related problems.

Best wishes.
