Are you experiencing internal tremors that have moved from your shoulders to your groin and legs on both sides over the past month?

Internal tremors that migrate to different body parts can be concerning. While Parkinson's tremors typically affect one side of the body more than the other (asymmetric), they can involve various areas including arms, hands, head, torso, jaw, and lips.

The pattern you're describing—tremors moving bilaterally (on both sides) and migrating between different body regions—is somewhat unusual for typical Parkinson's tremors. Parkinson's tremors are usually:

* Most noticeable when the body part is at rest
* Often described as "pill-rolling" motions
* Typically asymmetric (affecting one side more)
* Subsiding during sleep

Since your symptoms involve bilateral movement and migration across different body regions within a short timeframe, this warrants evaluation by a neurologist. They can help determine whether these sensations are related to Parkinson's progression or another factor affecting your nervous system.

Keep track of when these tremors occur, what makes them better or worse, and whether they're internal sensations or visible shaking. This information will be valuable for your doctor.
