Restless leg syndrome - Tremor at rest?

Is the "Restless Leg Syndrome" a form of Tremor at rest? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.68.106.3 (talk) 07:37, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No. It is an irresistible urge to move one's leg, arm, chest, pphantom limbs etc. A tremor is 100% involuntairy, and comes without notice or other symptoms (usually), and has a very short active phase, and then it doesnt recur again in any predictable manner; compare with RLS, which will continually bother a single area. 96.28.157.126 (talk) 06:39, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Etiologies and Diagnosis sections coped from NIH?

See http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/tremor/detail_tremor.htm Liberal Classic (talk) 18:30, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I was researching this topic using a google search and found both the wikipedia article and an article at [1] It seems obvious that large parts of the wikipedia article are copied from the NIH document without attribution Richquaker (talk) 15:09, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

At the bottom of the etiologies list, I have placed a short reminder that all of those things can also be a result of panic with no other underlying problem. It should be made clear when something is catastrophically likely to happen, or has such a ridiculously low chance to the point where you get sicker by worrying about it. 96.28.157.126 (talk) 06:34, 30 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Chattering of teeth" = tremor?

Is this a joke? "A very common tremor is the chattering of teeth, usually induced by cold temperatures or by fear." And it's been put in the top paragrah too... 182.255.99.214 (talk) 12:28, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Essential tremors are or are not resting tremors?

Under Categories, "resting tremors" includes and links to "essential tremors", but that page specifically says "It is not a resting tremor" and links back here.

Obviously, both cannot be true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.97.72.228 (talk) 22:00, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
