Shouldn't be a issue after 5 days, usually at the 1-2 day mark.
I would suggest seeing your doc just as a precaution.

yes I think a dr is in order

5 days is too long. Things should be getting progressively better after the first day with no alcohol. Withdrawal hits and you shake and sweat, you can't sleep, etc. I also had some intense anxiety problems. Anyway, each time you wake up in the morning you should feel a little better. By day 3 your body should be telling you that things are getting better. 5 days is too long.

I am told that occasionally people who drank large amounts and did so daily it could stretch out for a longer time. You want to get checked out by a pro. This seems to my like something more that your regular, run-of-mill withdrawal.
You can take an anti histamine to slow down your autonomic nervous system if you cannot go to the doctor. You can also take herbs like Valerian or even Kava.
However, if you are having something more than withdrawal, you may not want to mask the symptoms.

If you call the ER they are probably going to tell you to come in.
If you have insurance go. If no insurance go to a mental health crisis center. If you are just in withdrawal you don't want a huge bill, but if it is more than withdrawal you don't want to die.
Alcohol withdrawal can kill. That is rare, but it is a fact. It isn't just overreacting by some histrionic weenie in rehab.

Seeing a doctor is advisable, but I'd be careful as some General Practitioners will prescribe medication for anxiety once they rule out basic physical causes straight away. If your shaking is due to psychological factors I'd be inclined to ask a General Practitioner for a referral to a mental health professional that specializes in substance abuse/anxiety before taking anything.

Before getting on pills, you might try sipping a heavy sugared drink. I sobered up on OJ with a couple of tablespoons of honey stired in. When the skakes begin, sip the OJ. It will replace the sugar the body is no longer getting from ETOH. Also sip some when the craving begins to develop. Over the years, I have sobered up a lot of alcoholics with no doctor bill or possible addiction to a sobering up Rx.

Since you haven't had a drink since 11/21 you are well past the point that sugar consumption therapy would be the best course of action in dealing with your shakes. I would get checked out for a possible problem with your blood sugar, before you begin to consume larger quantities of it.

There are so many possible physiological causes for your shakes that seeing a doctor is best. It may be as simple as the cold as you say, but listening to one's body is important. IMO

I have had the shakes for a few weeks, and I at first thought it was from PK withdrawal. Then, I realized having a drink made them go away. Drinking water out of a Nalgene(sp?) type bottle all day long has been awesome for me because I've always hated drinking water. Also, I take a low dose of temazepam at night and that has been helping. If it does not get better soon, I will being heading to the doctor.

Maybe its anxiety, when i was sober for months and months my hands still used to shake but it was down to anxiety......
