My mother is 57 years old and has been having some trouble with her memory. I have also noticed lately that her head is shaking and she doesn't even notice it.

Could this have anything to do with Alzheimers disease? Her grandmother had it and her mother has been diagnosed with early stages. She doesn't have any other symptoms of Parkinsons.

From what you have stated, I think she is experiencing symptoms of alzheimers. So the early you can get her in to see a physician the better off she will be. If she is in the very early stages then she can be treated with a medicine that would help her lead a somewhat normal life.

She could have early signs of parkinsons or some other problem. Also memory problems are NOT a normal part of aging so get her in to the doc ASAP to get all of this checked out.

This sounds like it might be the beginning of Parkinson's Disease but it would probably be best if you could get her to agree to get checked out by a doctor.

Could be Parkinson's or some other kind of neurological disease. Take her to a doctor soon.

Could be Parkinson's disease. I would take her to neurologist ASAP. The disease is progressive and the earlier you catch it, the better the treament options.
