What Causes Involuntary Shaking Of Head And Hand?

Yes, I have been shaking from my head a lot and my hands. Also inside shaking, when I get it I get shortness of breath. I have had some chest pain at times. I've had 3 heart attacks over the past 15 years. I went to the cardiologist twice and my ekg was fine both times. I take my blood pressure dailey for the past few days. It's been ok but my standing pulse rate is not what my normal is. Resting rate is usually in the 60's. It's been between 75 and 95. I also went to my GP doctor and all the blood work came out negative. What do I do next.
