I did the LSVT "Big" therapy (prescribed by my PCP), but like Brian, I am fortunately very early in the progression of the disease, with only somewhat of a minor tremor in my left hand. I'm right-handed (whew!).
I went through the LSVT BIG program with a PT & OT as well! Very worthwhile. The exercises greatly assist in keeping my range of motion. I plan to perform these exercises every day for the rest of my life!
I went when I was first diagnosed and nothing really happened. But now that I went in with this very specific issue, they were very helpful. Did you have a specific issue you went in for?
Hey guys, here's a topic that you should consider- "Embryonic Stem Cell Therapy" (primarily for tremors) Big pharma and religious zealots continue to lobby against it here. But many have had the procedure done in Panama, Mexico, Sweden, Germany, etc...with great success! ❤
We have not, but we can! Assuming you live alone and have PD, are you concerned about the challenges you may face later in the diagnosis? Let me know if there is something specific you would want us to focus on. I'm sure Brian can discuss.
