Parkinson's Disease: What it is, who gets it, how it's treated | LiveNOW from FOX 

My husband has been diagnosed and he never had a problem until he got the Covid vaccination.

My father died of Parkinsons disease. As a young child under 2 years of age, he fell and hit his head in the middlevof his forehead (the hypoglyceal area if l remember my neuroanatomy). He could only tast salt,sugar, sour, and bitter. This did NOT impede his appetite!, but we never ate salt!!! When he was in his 70's, he began to suffer from micrographia, a rigid neck, saw double or triple, and wasn't himself. He finally lost his ability to turn over and had a huge necrotic bedsore. He remained quite upbeat, and died peacefully in his sleep when he was 80. He was a fine athlete and did regret not being able to play golf. I still miss him.

Post Covid pandemic and post vaccines Parkinson has increased in various age groups globally

This still does not tell the story. Parkinson's for some, steals the body, while the mind watches in horror. The lack of control goes from bothersome, to a full-on battle. Imagine sitting in a chair and decide to stand up, your mind expects your body to perform a sequence of events, and you can almost feel it, the same way you always felt it, expected, but you're still sitting there. Parkinson's is ridiculous, and however long it takes for the symptoms to progress, it still all comes too soon. Especially for those who still had things to do. Diagnosed at 53, 6 years now, and I was in denial of the subtle early symptoms for over 10 years before diagnosis. I'm still learning something new every day. No cognitive decline, but when your mouth won't speak, everyone assumes you've lost it.

Parkinson’s sounds like a very horrific disease.

Has Parkinson’s increased in prevalence since the pressure to be vaccinated from flu for the past 20 years?

Thanking Fox news .. Very informative talk on Parkinson

My stepdad passed from Parkinson disease. He had the stiff symptoms, no shaking. He was told that his exposure to the Spanish flu as a child was a direct link to his illness. His father, and uncle succumbed to the outbreak, and his mother survived. The entire family lived together,(grandparents and 3 siblings) he was 4 years old at the time and vi idly recalled the events that took place during the ordeal.😢

Well at least we have The poster child on TV everyday to raise awareness

My great grandparents subsistence farmers , grew and canned their own food, except purchasing staples , like flower, sugar, coffee etc

Good to be aware. Not many ppl know unless they experienced it

I don't think we should have a President with even mild Parkinson's, especially one who is already incompetent to begin with.. We have a chance to put Trump back in office and I will vote for Trump.

Parkinsons doest not always have tremors

Great Info Thanks

Why is parkinson's all over the news ever since the presidential debate

Well, I guess that explains the oil slick on the windshield in Delaware.....

At 88, my husband has been diagnosed with PD. No tremors,but has fine motor and swallowing difficulties. He has a-fib. I am concerned that his chronic fatigue may be due to his heart meds. His short term and long term memory are weak, and I’ve noticed some cognitive decline. I am a retired speech therapist and have started helping with his communication and swallowing.He is also in PT and sees a personal trainer one time per week. An ex athlete, he tries to stay active by playing 9 holes of golf , riding his stationary bike, and getting together with friends and family. It’s hard to keep him motivated, but I’m doing my best at this point. I have attend meetings with researchers in this field. They feel that toxins in our environment and ingredients in weed killers are contributing factors in the rise of PD. Many thanks for your presentation.

My beloved husband passed away with Parkinson. The last stages of Parkinson is really sad to watch your loveone deteriorate right before your eyes and there's nothing you can do.

Thank you

Thank you sincerely for this information!!!!!

Fascinating information… Very educational

I wonder if the growth of Parkinson’s disease could be from poor diet, and eating foods that have been genetically modified. Also not keeping our body strong with exercise, and not taking care of your diet . My hubby recently died from Parkinson’s disease. It is a terrible slow decline in physical and mental health. And yes most doctors do not do a very good jobs treating Parkinson’s disease.

My dad died from Parkinson's days before his 92nd birthday. He had no cognitive impairment at all, was awake during the entire day, used a walker occasionally. His Parkinson's disrupted his internal organs. It is a complex disease. Even if Biden had it, which WH doctors say he doesn't, he is clear-headed and a man of his word. What else do I need?

Excellent!

Interesting Thank. You.

How is it diagnosed? Is there a blood test?

Super!

Thanks for the information on PD. Many PD patients have cognitive changes. It is a degenerative disease. Now let's have a discussion about the signs and symptoms of dementia.

@ReformedRepublican I am 63 and have been suffering x 15 years with all your Dad's synptoms...Im a Family Dr of 32 years experience in a small town...it has taken 4 different Neurologists all plsying down my deterioration...too close for comfort I think.. Trouble moving in bed huge for me

Is there a geographical map for Parkinson's? What are all the correlations? Genetics, nationalities, correlation in particular career areas ie sedentary jobs, dentistry, professions? Diet, exercise education, critical life events incurring major stress at some point in time or is this information not yet evaluated?

God reward you 🙏

Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

Explain the difference between disease and disorder.

PD increased recently, the pandemic

It is sad that just because a president has PD it matters. There are thousands of people suffering from this disease including my husband. My opinion he has PD

Psych meds are far more prevelant now. I wonder if the side effects of those and other kinds of medications or treatments produce parksonian type of symptoms

Have two friends with PD. Dr Matthew Phillips worth exploring and must listen to the Neurologist.

My Mother turned stiff as a board, like Mohammed Ali. Mom had dementia. A shunt for fluid on the brain.

We need to introduce a law that no President of the USA stays in office after 80 years old.

Pesticides is one cause of Parkinson’s disease as well as GMOs and genetics.

Brazilian Pele, The Best Player of the world....
