Edit
It is unknown because of the lack of trial science but they are working on it. I was diagnosed at age 61 (last year) with truncal dystonia. My brother, age 69 has had Parkinson's for 30 yrs. I feel fortunate to get my movement disorder late in my life. My two other older brothers have no problems. My mother and cousins have head treamors (movement disorders) that did not qualify for any technical condition other than treamors. Go figure......
