A 68-year-old male has a six-month history of memory impairment. He has recently retired from his job as he was struggling to maintain his work performance. His wife has been concerned that his arms have been shaking at rest. She has also noted that he appears to be shuffling more when he walks. He has not been sleeping as well. He has been low in mood but attributed this to his recent retirement.
