Dm with possible degenerative neurological condition

My mum has been told by the gp she might have Parkinson's.

I'm quite surprised as she has no tremors. She said she is stiff, has cramps, imo has a masked face sometimes. Is worried about balance and has trouble standing from sitting. Shes been told it's a 8 month wait to see neuro!

Do you always have tremors with parkinsons? Luckily dm doesnt have Google so I dont think she knows the possible implications of a diagnosis. Lots of denial about long term living independently but I will park that until it's been ruled in or out.
