So I think if tremor is interfering in your quality of life and you think that that tremor is impairing your ability to do the everyday tasks that you want to, then I think that that's important to bring that up with your GP or your local doctor. I think that if tremor is there, particularly at rest, when you're resting your hands down and not doing anything, that can sometimes be an early onset sign of Parkinson's disease and certainly is definitely a symptom that you would want to seek advice for from your GP and perhaps a specialist.
