Hi
I also started symptoms for first few decades in my right hand and then
in my right leg, and then slowly it started creeping into in my left leg!
But, my tremor was ET and not the resting tremor. Apparently all the ET
tremors starting on one side to begin with is characteristic of this rare
kind (30%?) of PD, where other symptoms follow slowly. Besides, I had a
call from NIH last week. They did not find in my blood test any of the
known gene mutations that has been known to occur in PD patients.
Obviously, there are other PD genes that we don't know about.
