After a period of time, the tremor slowly spread to the whole hand, and then spread to the left lower limb, right upper limb and lower limb.

Patients often feel inexplicable fear, fear, tension and uneasiness, often fidgety, restless, rubbing hands and feet, pacing up and down, small movements increase, attention can not be focused, they do not know why such a panic.
