It took a while for me to be diagnosed. I have had tremors for many years.then 2 years ago I had numerous falls. My PCP sent me to physical therapy to help with balance. As I was coming to the end of my individual treatment, the physical therapist told me about a group that was specifically for Parkinson’s patients. My tremors were getting worse and I had started getting severe “cramps” in various muscle groups. When I had my annual physical my PCP recommended I see a neurologist. That got me the diagnosis.

My whole point is that it may take time and there is such a thing as “Parkisonlike” symptoms which may, or may not, lead ,eventually, to a Parkinson’s diagnosis.
