I am having a similar issue due to the way I hyperextend my arms and sometimes bend my wrists while sleeping. To confirm the source of the tremors, you need a nerve conduction test given only by a neurologist. Once they locate the source, you may be able to get PT - a brace or a course of exercised to release the nerve.
I would take the magnesium and if all else fails, look for whole brain neurofeedback. Like NeurOptimal - it works on the central nervous system and tends to lessen the symptoms of nerve pain. It also releases endorphins and gives the brain a sense of calmness.

I get tremors in my hands & though I can't comment on the dietary side ( apart from keeping it healthy) I strap 500 gram weights around my wrists (the ones that usually strap around your ankles) while I'm on the computer, phone, writing, prepping meals etc. It has really made a difference. Leave them on for 10-20 minutes at a time. Can't hurt to give it a try.

I had a daughter as a baby who kept getting seizures. When she was tested she did not test positive for epilepsy. I put her on brewers yeast, lecithin and long walks. She never had another seizure.

Please regard this response as just having more information. I have had my tremors for 20 years. Started when I was 45. I have tried many suggestions on EC but no lasting results. I was informed there is a non surgical out patient procedure that will eliminate the your tremor in one of your hands. You choose which hand. The FDA has not approved the procedure for more than 1 hand, at this time. The procedure is called focused ultrasound. I am having it performed in one week at the University of Virginia. I do know the procedure is available at other hospitals across the US. The procedure was pioneered at UVA and they have been doing the since 2016. Results are immediate after your treatment.To find out more info about this procedure, search Focused Ultrasound. I will post again next week after my procedure.

Hi Rob,Focused Ultrasound (FUS) is also used to treat certain Parkinson's disease (PD) symptoms including tremors, but the target is different.
They use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to precisely guide and target the ultrasound to a very specific and precise area of the brain that the ultrasound essentially burns and destroys for the purpose of reducing or eliminating tremor. I have a friend with PD who is considering having it done. Medicare covers the procedure in some areas of the US. There are some potential side effects that have been reported and your doctor can explain that to you before the procedure. Some PD patients have described the results as life changing.
Good luck!

Things like these are why I always recommend sleeping through illness AND on an incline. Get the mind out of the body's way and keep the circulation active so the body can do what needs to be done without any interference from you.You relax with your mind but you ALSO tense up and batter and aggravate your physiology with your mind. I'm not a "tense" sort of person but there have been times - and during those times I took complex B vitamins and hydrated but, of course, now that I'm "at an age", I can simply stop what I'm doing, drink water and take a nap whenever I want.
When you sleep on an incline, assuming 8 hours, you increase the time your body spends in a proper state of circulation by 50%. And if you drink water, providing the clean water the body requires - in EVERYthing it does and particularly problem-solving and restoration - and put your mind to sleep, you're practically golden. Just with that. Add rebounding and you'd probably be "super human"! ROFL!
(I just recently rediscovered rebounding, in case you were wondering, lol)

Insulin resistance is ONE of the things that can give you tremors, 1 in 3 people have that or another form of diabetes. Get an A1c test and take fish oils. If your blood sugar is high, go on a special diet to stop the carbs/sugars in your diet.
