Default ?'s regarding early signs/symptoms...

I was wondering if anyone would share with me when they noticed and what their early signs of PD were.

MS has been ruled out for me, but I know that there is something wrong with me neurologically. They tell you to listen to your body and that is what I am doing.

In 2003 I had a major surgery and shortly after is when my symptoms began. I have tremors, myoclonic jerks, insomnia, bladder control problems, memory lapse(not able to remember words, events, etc), depression, run into walls and objects(both in light and darkness), cramps in my legs and feet, staring for long periods of time without blinking, and my biggest problems is fatigue. EXTREME FATIGUE!

Now I know this symptoms can be a combination of different things, and I am being treated for depression(Cymbalta), NES(Lamictal), Fibromyalgia(Lyrica) and severe migraines w/auras(verapamil and Migra-Ease). However w/these medications, I still have the above symptoms.

I have seen a neurologist that specialized in MS. He ruled out MS today. We have been looking at MS for about two years, but he said the test in the last two years (MRI scans, Lumbar Puncture, VEP and blood test) rule out MS.

Do you think he would/should have picked up on PD if I present these above symptoms?(even if he does specialize in MS)

All your comments/advice and suggestions are greatly appreciated and I would like to thank you in advance.

M
