My husband was diagnosed in 2017
My husband was diagnosed 6 years ago but had symptoms we ignored for several years before that. His symptoms are much the same as when he was diagnosed, just a little worse. He is just slower, takes smaller steps, and has less energy. He was basically stage 3 when diagnosed and still there. He is 86 so some of that is age, not Parkinson's.
That’s exactly what my husband does. He’s having a lot of frustration with excessive mucus and mild dysphasia. At this stage , what helps you the most either treatments or family support??
At 72 and 8 years since officially diagnosed, I’ve been hovering from a 3 to 3.5. Some symptoms relax a while, others increase. It’s like a roller coaster, high, low; fast, slow; twisting, smooth. It’s exhausting to constantly be challenged.
What symptoms do people experience after nine years with Parkinson's?
Parkinson's affects everyone differently, and there's no single timeline for how symptoms progress. Some members who've had Parkinson's for many years continue to live very active lives, while others face more challenges.
