Thanks for posting your query on HCM!
I really appreciate and respect your feelings towards your husband.
As per the problems discussed in the question, I am of the opinion that your husband is most likely to be suffering from Parkinson's disease.
It is a degenerative disorder of the brain involving special neurons (dopaminergic) controlling the voluntary movements, co ordination of movement, speech, etc.
You are advised to take your husband to a neurologist for proper examination and treatment.

Insha Allah! he will respond to the treatment.
