Thank you very much for sharing your story with us @Brewes!

@MrsPeanut, @Peter888, @rooneytoomey, @Daisysnan, @EmmyJay, what could you tell us about helping your relative/friend with Parkinson's disease? 

Hello i am the one with parkinsons disease, ad the frustrating part about it is, that somedays yo may have a period were you feel absolutely fine, and the peope who care for you often seem to think that youare ok and that you dont really have a problem, but they dont often see the times when i am unable to walk, when you are weak and your dexterity and co ordination are such that you can not hold on to something without dropping it, 

And so i feel as if i am expectedat times to carry out tasks that are often too difficult or impossible to do, because on the times that i am feeling relativelrry out those tassy ok, i do m best to carry out those tasks.

Now I am not bitter about getting parkinsons as very often in life you simply have to play the hand your dealt, but i could do with a little more understanding

I'm a carer for my father who was diagnosed two years ago. I admit I feel guilty sometimes because I just want to have a "normal" day. It can be really hard sometimes to be a carer because a lot of responsibility falls on you, but no one really asks how you are or if you need something.

I don't resent my father at all, but sometimes the situation is just overwhelming. I know no one will see this but just felt like talking about it somewhere.

My husband who had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease for 2 years at the age of 63 had all his symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from naturalherbscentre. com after undergoing their Parkinson’s natural protocol. God Bless all Parkinson’s Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength. I can personally vouch for  these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.

I was diagnosed in UK 2013. i was diagnosed with the bulbar form of Parkinson's disease(PD) and was given one year to live. My symptoms progressed quickly. Soon i was having difficulty standing, swallowing and even walking short distances. With the help of Multivitamin herbal Care I have been able to reverse my symptoms using diet, herbs, which i feel has made the most difference. The PD natural formula immensely helped my condition, it reversed my Parkinson. my slurred speech. And then the inability to eat without getting choked, breathing, and coughing. gradually disappeared. Visit MULTIVITAMIN HERBAL CARE via their official website multivitamincare. org I’m now playing golf again. and i turned 72 today. i am glad to get my life back DON’T GIVE UP HOPE!!!
