What Is The Cause For Tremors In My Fingers With Acid Reflux?

I have been having tremors in my left index and middle finger for several weeks now. I saw a doctor today who suggested it could be related to H pylori infection, and suggested the Urea Breath Test. ahve you ever heard of this? I also suffer from severe acid reflux, which he said could be related.

Hi
Welcome back to healthcare magic.
It sounds strange to have symptoms in little and ring fingers to e caused by a bug in stomach.
May be he is correlating with poor absorption of vitamins due to H.pylori that causing neuropathy which in turn might be causing the symptoms.
But it is a bit far fetched correlation.
It is highly advisable that you get examined by a local physician for both of your symptoms and get treated.
It is advisable that you get an endoscopy and get a sample from stomach for H.pylori.
Also get an Xray of neck to see if there is any pressure on nerve roots as a cause.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
I find this answer helpful
