Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms. It was unfortunate that you were misdiagnose as pParkinson's disease (PD) for about seven years. As you only have tremors, the most likely diagnosis in your case is essential tremors.

In addition to tremors, patients with PD also have slowness and rigidity of limbs.

To reduce tremors, you could take beta blockers or topiramate.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
