I saw a MDS who is ruling out other things it could be. I just had an MRI yesterday. He wants to rule out stroke because in 5 years the tremor hasn't crossed over. I had a blood test last week to rule out Wilson's disease. I forgot to tell him I should be checked for Lyme as we lived in New England shortly before the tremors started. I have another appointment in two weeks to discuss test results.

The neuro diagnosed me with PD in 2006 but didn't run tests to rule out other stuff. I'm glad it's being done now. Kind of confusing. I don't care what they call it as long as they do something to help symptoms if they can't cure it. But they need to know what it is to do that. So I guess I do care what they call it. Still confused after all these years.
