Trying Really Hard To Make It Through
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

What keeps you waking up in moving everyday. This is so hard so much pain and stiffness. I'm on an depressants but it doesn't seem to work. Only getting three and a half hours of relief in between doses. When it wears off all I do is pace and cry because the pain makes me not able to function. Trying to exercise when I can just don't seem to have the ambition. My doctor is going to add medication on the 21st of this month to make this last longer and I'm scared to add more crap. Feels like I'm… read more

Is This Why The NHS Is In Trouble?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

A bit of background for the Americans who may not know...we pay about £10 for prescribed meds. You can get a discount if you pay in advance for up to a year. It's called a pre payment certificate. It used to be printed but to "save money", they just email them now...

I just applied for one. I'm paying monthly direct debit. They have to confirm that by post. I received four email replies, and yes, four letters, all at exactly the same time, but posted separately including their own envelopes...

Is The Lack Of Control Over Your Emotions A Symptom Of PD?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I seem to not be able to control my anger as of late. I say too many things that can not be unsaid and have to constantly apologize, it's like my filter went away! What I say is always valid, but still hurtful. And then come the tears and sobs. Because I feel horrible for being an ass, then feel sorry for myself lol.
I feel that it all comes from pent up frustrations from just everyday bs, dropping things, forgetting things , another trip up the stairs, etc., etc.
Anyone else relate?
