That is a scary article. There are so many things that can go wrong.

Parkinson’s increases the risk of a bad reaction to anesthesia. This should all be explained to you by your surgeon, but it rarely is. Get ahold of your surgeon and ask him about it. If he doesn’t know or just says that’s not true, look for another surgeon.

You can print this out and show him.

I had a very bad setback after having kidney stone removal through my back (very big stone). I needed physical therapy to get back to walking. I also needed a home nurse. I believe my body didn't respond well with the surgery and the anesthesia 🙄
