Preparing for your appointment
By Mayo Clinic staffYou will probably first discuss your symptoms with your family doctor. He or she may refer you to a neurologist for further evaluation.
What you can do
Appointments can be brief. To make the best use of the limited time, plan ahead and write lists of important information, including:
- Detailed descriptions of all your symptoms
- A list of all your medications and dosages, including nonprescription drugs and supplements
- Questions for the doctor, such as what tests or treatments he or she may recommend
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor may ask some of the following questions:
- Do you have a family history of tremor?
- Have you ever had a head injury?
- What parts of your body are affected?
- Does anything make your tremors better or worse?
- What medications are you taking?
