Answers:
I am glad you are going to the doctor; it's a doctor's advice that you really need.
Having said that, keep in mind that Parkinson's Disease is totally different from Bipolar Disorder. If you are taking medications for Bipolar Disorder (aka Manic-depressive Illness), some of these medications can cause tremor, such as Lithium. Probably your confusion could be caused by medication, as well. I would recommend that you go to see the doctor who prescribed your medication for Bipolar Disorder.
The links below separately describe Parkinson's Disease and Bipolar Disorder.
I wish you well. :-)
