Jibson999: Gud day doc in d house, I'm a student in my early twenties. Late last year, I noticed I had this random shaking of ma fingers, and now it has increased, if I carry a spoon, cup, drawing materials my fingers start shaking and its getting embarrassing.
I just chkd ma blood pressure and got this : bp- 141/56, pulse- 66. Is it normal ? And please I'd like to know the cause and solution this

I'm a junior colleague to Doctor Timi and will answer your question.
You have been having tremors and there are so many clinical conditions that can cause it depending on the type: fine, coarse or flapping. From your little description, it seems to me more like a coarse tremor, however, you'll have to see a medical doctor who will evaluate your symptoms and do a thorough examination on you. You may have to do some ivestigations, but that will be left to the discretion of your doctor.
As to your blood pressure, its quite high, however, one can't make a diagnosis of hypertension from a single reading. All the same, see a doctor for full evaluation.
Health / Planning A Kidney Transplant by Alexylas: 8:57pm On May 18, 2012
Kidney transplant often comes as a last resort when an individual already has "end stage renal disease" and cannot bear the increasing cost of two-weekly dialyses.Such a person would have suffered chronically from recurrent facial and body swelling, and oliguria and will be in a metabollic disarray.
Planning a kidney transplant involves finding a nearly perfect match who is willing to donate a kidney. Afterwards, the cost of the surgery is estimated based on available parameters and a date is fixed for the surgery. Mind you, both parties (donor and recipient) would have been screened to ensure that they have no contraindications to transplant.
The surgeries will be carried out simultaneously as the kidneys have a minimal time they can spend outside the human body. Both parties should have at least two consultant physicians, anaesthetists and a consultant surgeon may be enough to carry out both surgeries to be assisted by senior registrars, registrars, nurses and other health workers. The team is often headed by the surgeon.
After the surgery, both parties are intensely monitored to ensure they survive the procedure and the recipient may have to be on life-long steroid to prevent graft rejection.
