Well, I happen to be one of the lucky few, who has a very rare condition, in which I have tremors caused by a Dopamine defieciency, which has no identifiable disease connected to it, at this time.

My neurologist says I do not have Parkinson's, because I do not have the characteristics that are present in people with Parkinson's. He is also confused about the sudden onset and rapid progression into the severe tremors which I now have, particularly with no family history of such a condition.

There is no metal poisoning or disease in my blood which could contribute to this.

This condition was likely caused by an acute chemical exposure of several gasses and chemicals in a confined, unventilated space.

Thought I read somewhere that when a person with Parkinson's has their tremors, that they may have mood swings with them. I was wondering if this is something related to neurochemical more than actual emotions. Because when my tremors act up, I am not sad, but then I get a sudden mood swing of sadness, which leaves as soon as the tremors calm.

Thank you all so much for your help. I am very young, and this is new to me, so all the help I can get is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Caring
