What Causes Tremors In The Left Hand?

I am taking two Curcumin tabs per day for osteoarthritis of the hips. I have been on them for about two weeks. I also take 4 panadol osteos, 7mls olive leaf extract, cerc, macuvision, lutein defence, COQ10, promensil, Metamucil, calcium, D3, B12. I have had a slight tremor in my left hand for about two years, in the last two weeks it has worsened and also has started in my left leg and right hand. Fine motor skills are slightly affected. I have a herniated disk between 5th and 6th vertebrae. The cardiologist is investigating heart arythmia. He has sent me for a thyroid test. I am on a very healthy diet but have started eating about 4 pieces of 70% cocoa dark chocolate daily. I am wondering if any of the above is leading to the tremors. I am 66. Robyn

hi
A neurological consultation for tremor is better. The meds. mentioned by you may or may not be a cause, still other causes of tremor have to be searched for.cardiac arrythmias may also indirectly cause varied symptoms if affecting circulation, ask your cardiologist too.then there could be spinal causes due to cervical spondylosis.Trust a neurologist he will exclude all known causes with check up
best wishes
