What Are The Symptoms And Treatments For Parkinson S Disease?

I was released from hospital for gastroparesis and cyclic vomiting. I am now experiencing pain in right groin that radiates down leg. I have had bilateral inguinal hernias repaired two years ago and my doctor suspects that I am in the early stages of Parkinson s. I am also a Type 2 diabetic with hypertension. Thank you for any help!
