Does Withdrawal From Xanax Cause Involuntary Shaking Of Hands?

I have been on xanex and zolpidem, for sleep problems,for several months.(Per my Doctor s orders)..I have tried to slow down with the xanex. the past few days.My hands are VERY SHAKEY and I feel very nervous.When I try to write I can not hold the pen steady and my hand shakes uncontrollably and I can not write (or do much else).Could this be due to withdrawal of the xanex? My doctor also gave me trazodone to use in place of the xanex if I so choose. I am concerned about this unrolled shaking as it is happening more often and it is quite a burden .

Along with vitamins, I think u should know the cause for your bald patch and treat ur itchy skin over there. There are several causes like alopecia, which causes patchy hair loss or it could be some other condition like psoriasis where there is itching and scaly patches in the scalp. Since you don't have any other symptoms other than that, u would suggest u to treat the itchiness and inflammation if any.
