    I have had mild symptoms for at least ten years, fine motor was the first I noticed, but didn't realize what was going on. A year ago the MD said possible dementia, but I have trouble walking in a strait line. She had me walk, noticed I didn't swing my arms. I started to and I walk strait now. I'm in PT now to improve my balance issue. I have other symptoms, just too many to list.

    Does any one in your group do High Dose Thamine, i have found a lot of positive information about it. I would love to find others who have some experience with it or are actively following the HDT protocol.

    Can you look into the vibrating glove therapy created by Dr Peter Tass at Stanford University?

      I reached out but haven't heard back from them yet. But I did look into it further and spoke to my neurologist about it. Unfortunately, there is still a lot of research they need to do. Apparently the study was very small and while it was shared on the Today Show, they are still far out from any kind of FDA approval. www.apdaparkinson.org/article/vibrating-gloves-to-improve-parkinsons-symptoms/

    Looking good guys ❤I’m scheduled for a phone appointment for dbs on May 31st. I saw another video of a gentleman who had the focused ultrasound..didn’t look too good..meaning the results. I would go for dbs. I’m still very active, and boxing hard core! Best shape of my life. But the off times are brutal.

    I pray my husband could get this. 🙏Right now his insurance company is not approving it. He was all set to get it.

      I wonder if his Neurologist can send clinical data to the insurance company, to make the case that this would reduce or eliminate meds. I hate when they get therapies approved but then no one can afford it because insurance companies won't help. Good luck!

    What about Parkinson’s plus patients? Would it work for them?

    The FUS seems to be an oblation of a part of the brain. Does it work in the long run or does the brain work around the oblated part and then the tremors return?

    • @thesecretlifeofparkinsons

      From individuals I know who have had FUS, they were told that the benefits could last between 5-7 years I believe. But then the brain works around the oblation.
