Every night when I am sleepy out of nowhere my head and arms shake. It all started after I had some illness where I threw up and had a painful stomach ache and the night before just and only my head was shaking violently and I couldn't stop it. That was 2 months ago and I want to know what causes this? My family doesn't want to take me to the doctor because they don't think it's that big of a deal but it's annoying and I'm a little bit worried.

By brushing it off as nothing to worry about is not a good idea.
