My husband had his appendix removed in his mid 20's after it became inflamed.

I wonder whether it is too late to have my appendix removed?

Too late according to this article:

The effect on Parkinson's was only apparent when the appendix was removed early in life. Having the appendix removed after the disease developed had no effect on its progression. Appendectomies also had no effect in the small percentage of patients whose Parkinson's was linked to a hereditary genetic mutation.
