Does Anyone Have A Diagnosis Of Atypical Parkinsonism. Please Give Your Most Bothersome Symptoms And What Do You Do About It.
what type of atypical parkinson you have? Any successful treatment? what is your prognosis ?
I have been to a recent visit to the Neurologist and after another examination he said he didn't believe I had Parkinson. He mentioned Parkinsonism but that a better description is "autonomic failure". So this means I display many of the symptoms of Parkinsons but not fully blown Parkinsons. The symptoms are poor control of blood pressure, sleep disturbance, muscular fatigue, dizzy spells etc. I take Lisinopril to stop by BP from jumping too high and clonazepam to prevent too violent reactions during REM sleep. I think the prognosis is a steady progress of the above symptoms just like in Parkinsons.

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member HI Doug, Thanks for your comments, my neurologist when i saw him several days ago is now leaning towards a diagnosis of multiple systems atrophy, because of my symptoms, which is a subtype under the umbrella of Parkinsonism. I more or less have the same symptoms as you have. I noticed my freezing and balance problems have worsen during the past 6 months or so. Hoping your days are better every day.
A MyParki...
