There are Parkinsonisms that resemble PD but are different diseases. Carbidopa doesn't work on them. This site has a couple of good articles in the Resources section on various Parkinsonisms. There are also a lot of symptoms that are part of Parkinson's that are not as obvious as tremors but are still part of the disease.

I have been a caregiver for a PD patient and now a patient, plus knowing a few others with this and none have the same symptoms. Yes there are some common symptoms but a these tend to be limited by the degree of intensity.

In 2023 I have seen three motion disorder specialists.
I have been diagnosed with PD, PDism and essential tremor.
I am taking Artane for essential tremor.
Did take carbidopa/levadopa with no changes in the tremors in my thumbs.
