Default weak legs

I have so many things wrong with me I have a hard time telling what is from parkinsons and what is not. Here's my latest concern. I experience tremendous amounts of back pain and sometimes when you are in significant pain you shake alot. My legs are also very weak. I had back surgery a year ago and I am thinking they are weak because of lack of exercise. I swim and try to exercise but can't walk much due to pain.
Is the shaking in the legs and the weakness a sign of progressing parkinsons? Of course it is, don't know why I am asking, just want to hear someone's thoughts on this. I see my neurologist soon and will ask him also. But it is getting so that between pain, weakness and shaking, I have only a small window in day to get out. I am so sad about this, I used to be such an active person.
