Well, George, After having been treated for clinical depression for nearly 2 years, my tremor came to everyone's attention (I had been hiding it). My X-gp said it was probably a familial tremor but I should see a neuro. When I saw the neuro he showed me a letter from my X-gp which said he believed I had PD and needed it checked out. What a liar. The neuro sent me for an MRI, x-rays, and other tests (the gp had already given me a complete battery of blood and other tests). Then the neuro gave me some more muscle, etc. tests and told me I have PD. He then gave me some brochures with information, phone numbers and addresses for PD organizations. Being a research, information and referral specialist, getting more info was no trouble, just a little time. Oh yes, I changed gps and the new one was a wealth of information and willing to work with the neuro for me. good luck with other answers. don't forget how to laugh (and do it often) Marling McReynolds [log in to unmask]
