UNDERSTANDING THE CONDITION
Parkinson’s disease & tremor
Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder associated with reduced dopamine activity. Tremor has several possible causes and does not by itself establish Parkinson’s disease.
NEUROLOGY · CONSULTATION GUIDE
Parkinson’s disease & tremor
Prepare for a conversation with Dr Anup Bende at Shriji Polyclinic.
Symptoms to discuss
Slowness, stiffness and tremor may occur. Sleep, balance, mood and memory can also be affected.
How assessment works
Diagnosis is mainly based on history and neurological examination. Selected investigations can help assess other explanations.
Treatment approaches
Medicines, rehabilitation and regular review can help manage symptoms. Some people need specialist assessment for advanced treatments. Treatment does not currently cure the condition.
Prepare for your review
Bring previous prescriptions, investigation reports and your current medication list. Write down when symptoms began and how they affect your daily life. Ask which changes to monitor and when to return for review.
When to seek prompt help
Bring medication names and dose timings, and describe changes in mobility and everyday function.
