thumb twitches


Hello friends,
Again, I am inquiring for my mother age 72.  She has still not
had a diagnois.  I notice that her thumbs both twitch when she
is holding objects.  I cannot tell if they twitch when at rest
as I haven't observed her hands at rest very much lately.
I am not sure if it's a pill rolling tremor or not.
The whole hand is not shaking just the thumb.  Does this mean
anything at this point?
Thanks for comments. Joe Huskey
