Do PD Patients Have Swollowing Problems And Verbal Stuttering Issues????
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

As slow as I try to eat and chew my food. I too often end up with almost a choking issue. Especially if someone interrupts me when I'm having a meal. Although it will happen even when I'm alone. The food comes right back up and it's not improving its progressing. I don't think it even makes it down into my stomach. Frustrated. That plus the shaking body jerks and balance issue.

Has Anyone Had Successful DBS(deep Brain Stimulation) For Truncial Dystonia (a Movement Disorder Related To PD)?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

Along with the usual Parkinisms, I also get a strong cramping spasm in the abdominal area when I try to stand upright without holding on to my walker.

I would love to find someone who has had successful surgery for some guidance.
