The Senior & Parkinson's Movement Manual

INTRODUCTION

Every person's Parkinson's disease (PD) journey is unique. No two people have precisely the same symptoms or progression, let alone lifestyle and genetics.

However, it is common that once you begin a treatment regimen after diagnosis, you can live life for a while with nearly complete relief from symptoms and few side effects. Eventually, though, after several years of being treated with levodopa, many people with PD notice that controlling symptoms become more complex and require more medication. At this point, motor fluctuations ("on-off" fluctuations) may begin to appear.

Thus, this book analyzes what engine vacillations are, why these changes might occur, and what to treat and deal with bureaucracy. The news, tips, and tales contained here will specify answers, help you arrange ideas and questions for your healing crew, and prompt that you are more than one on this Parkinson's journey.
