FinleyFox here. Last several months I developed insomnia due to my 6 years of PD. Also, having sleep apnea didn't help. My Neurologist recommended a mild 50mg generic sleep aid to help me sleep… read more
I am having a lot of problems talking lately . I will be talking and forget a simple word and can't think of it. Friends will add the word for me. I also can't follow conversation when people are talking to with a long story.This is happening more frequently. I only been dignosed a yr ago. Is anyone have this problem and what are you doing for it ?
I have similar issues although I have had 2small strokes in language areas in.the brain. Speech.therapy help me learn how to deal with it better though stress will bring it on. In my case it’s called… read more
Despite proven effectiveness and wide use of levodopa, usually prescribed as Sinemet® (carbidopa-levodopa), to manage movement symptoms in PD, doubts have lingered over the drug’s long-term safety. Research published Oct 11, 2011 in the journal Neurology, scientists conclude that larger cumulative doses of levodopa, taken for years or decades, do not harm critical brain cells in people with Parkinson’s.
The long-term use of levodopa is associated with dyskinesia and “wearing-off” periods in… read more
Thank you Allan for your post. I have a problem taking Carbidopa/Levodopa- it does not seem to affect my motor symptoms plus the fact that I was diagnosed with MSA. I still take 1-2 tablets (25/100)… read more
If you have had DBS surgery, is it something you would do again knowing what you know now?
Thank you so very much Patrick. Sorry to hear re: incision/scar placement and bumps of the caps used to cover the electrodes. Good to know. I agree ahead of time. I think these people see so many… read more
Parkinsonism is suppose to be worse than just PD. It is more involved with your movement mobility, so they say...
My husband told me this morning that I screamed out so loud last night that our neighbors could have heard me. I don't remember dreaming about anything. Usually, when I dream, it will wake me up or I wake myself up talking or screaming. Kind of scary but have a neuro appointment on Monday and will discuss it then.
My husband laughs, yells, kicks and talks in his sleep. It wasn’t safe for me to sleep in same bed. I’m not sure how he does now as I am in another room.
I have lost a lot of weight in the last month. I am having problems swallowing at times and feel full fast so am not eating as much as I should. I have found I have to stay away from alot of Protien as it interferes with my medications. Has anyone else noticed a large weight drop?
I hope so too for your good
Am I the only one who has lost the ability to do a thumbs up or hug/heart or did they announce another change and I missed it? I miss being able to respond to people's posts quickly. If it is a general change, I suppose the idea is to force people to make actual comments rather than just do simple reactions, but I liked being able to like and hug posts when I didn't have anything helpful to say.

Parkinson’s disease impacts people in many different ways. Not everyone will experience all of the symptoms of Parkinson’s, and if they do, they won’t necessarily experience them in quite the same order, or at the same level of intensity. Even so, there are typical patterns of progression in Parkinson’s disease that are defined in stages.
You might hear your doctor refer to your Hoehn and Yahr stage. This scale, first introduced in 1967, is a simple rating tool used by clinicians as a means to… read more
These stages in the uk are known as 1 mild 2 moderate 3 complex 4 advanced 5 end of life you can also go up in 1/2 stages ie 2.5 to 3 and the rate of progression does not change.
