Telling the difference between Parkinson's and essential tremors

Hello
I wonder if anyone knows the definite difference between the 2.
Thanks

Hi Yuk13,

That is a very interesting question and both have quite a few similarities. If you contact your GP or us at [email protected] you would be able to get more insight.

Hi,
This is for my partner, had the GP appointment and a cr scan of the head, now waiting for neurology appointment
GP seems to think essential tremors (apt in June) I thought the same, but over the last few months I’m questioning the actual difference - essential tremors and Parkinson’s, in the early stages.
Thanks
