Do Symptoms Similar To Parkinson’s Disease Require Medical Attention?
My wife is showing symptoms that fit the Parkinson s symptoms. She has shown these symptoms in the past, especially when she was in stressful situations. She usually stopped the shaking and tremors after she rested for a couple of hours. Today, she has had a more prolonged attack that has lasted for about ten hours. When should she be talking to a specialist?
Hi. This could be early Parkinson's or a benign essential tremor but either way she should see a neurologist right away for a thorough evaluation since treatment of early Parkinson's can be very beneficial
