What Do Body Tremors While On Lupron Indicate?

I have had mild tremors for the last 3 to 4 yrs. I am 70 yrs old. I have been on Lupron for prostate cancer for approx. 14 months of a 2 yr protocol. My tremors have become much worse. The left hand tremors most of the time and the right hand is starting to tremor occasionally. I m wondering if the Lupron has anything to do with this problem.
