A member asked:
Tremor in ring finger and index while taking blood pressure and when using my phone. what can cause this? parkinsons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
&tons of other stuff: Dozens of other things can cause tremors in the same fingers and they are not parkinson's. True story- a study done in england years ago that tracked the success rate of "parkinsonologists" in diagnosing parkinson's in patients who had virtually every textbook symptom of the disease. They were wrong 25% of the time! bottom line? Your tremor by itself absolutely doesn't define parkinson's.
