Benign tremulous Parkinsonism
By chance when reading a Forum reply I heard of Benign Tremulous Parkinsonism (BTP) where limited PD symptoms are very slow progressing and generally are not responsive to levedopa. Local enquiries about it have mainly drawn blanks so I wonder whether there are others who seem to have the characteristics eg. tremor at rest but mild non-tremor symptoms and only minor stooping or arm swinging. What articles I have found talk about 8 or more years with little symptom progression.

Hey Don, my Dad was diagnosed with PD in 2013. And his progression is slow but evident. This is the first time I’m hearing about Benign Tremulous Parkinsonism. But I’m really interested to hear more.
