Could Hands Tremor With Tensed Muscles Be Due To Parkinson S?

Hi Several people mentioned my hands shaking while doing a project. That was two years ago and since then stayed the same until recently. I tend to be emotional and high-strung lady. I recently have been very stressed and feel quivery inside. I notice that my muscles feel clenched but when I tell myself to relax, I feel like they just melt and it feels good. Within seconds I notice the tightness again. Sometimes I have muscle twitches. Last week, My GP mentioned Parkinsson. Since that I have been a basket case. I feel trembly inside and my muscles tense up constantly since then. I had a panic attack recently and it was awful! Could it be Parkinson s and I am exasperating it by letting my imagination run away with me? Is it all anxiety or is there the concern for Parkinson? I hope you can give me some insight as I am a wreck right now.
