Is it an essential tremor vs Parkinsons?

I've had mild tremors in my hands for years. In past 2-3 years it's gotten much worse. Previous tremors were when using hands. Now my hand's tremors occur at rest. Also, I'm always fatigued although CPAP compliant. I have memory issues, mind just goes blank. I can’t remember simple things. I have recent balance issues. I have RLS, PLMD, OSA, HTN, and depression.

You need a consult with a neurologist to determine this. A hand surgeon cannot help with either essential tremor or Parkinson's disease.
Please consult Neurologist to help you
This is an issue that needs to be evaluated by a neurologist, as opposed to a hand surgeon. Please consult a neurologist for a proper evaluation.
Can be side effect from drugs or drug-drug interactions. Consult Functional Medicine and Neurology.
