One of the ways of diagnosing Parkinson's is to take Sinemet or Madopar, (or Carbidopa-Levedopa by whatever trade name it is locally available), and see if it reduces your symptoms. A neurologist, preferably a movement disorder specialist, may prefer some other medication for the long run, but this might be a test to lend credence to whether or not your problem is Parkinson's.
