Can Body Tremors Indicate Parkinson's?
Hi, I am a female of 43 years, no children, autoimune disorders, fibromylagia. I drink medicine like Pasrin, Tramahexal, Lyrica, Arcoxia,Dormonoct, Monoquine, The last few month i would yawn more often, and when i yawn my whole body shakes uncontrolable. My uncle has got Parkinson. Is their any chance that it can be linked to early age Parkinson. Thanks so much.

Dear asker,
Parkinson tremors are very characteristic in frequency 3Hz resting tremors. other symptoms will manifest like, rigidity and body posture among other cognitive symptoms. so if your shakes come only after yawning its probably not related to parkinson. i hope this answered your question.
best regards,
