Because we don't know the cause of most PD cases, there could be either genetic or non-genetic causal links.

Are there similarities to multi infarct dementia & treatments interlinked eg:diabetes 1 in male twin cousin whose Mother I suspect had primary lipo-lymphoedema like me with no provision unless secondary of breast cancer forget about the other gynae forms She also had liver trouble mine is fatty & kidneys were scarred via sepsis /pylonephritus before pubity sex & menstruation causing flare ups too in a neurogenic bladder one ureter too many .

Then my sister & 1 both have low thyroids & Late Mother hypa parathyroidism , hysterectomy , prolapse polmyalgia rheumatica before muti infarct dementia .I have abnormal EEG a small spina bifida found with utis 3 weekly flare ups .

I have heart failure & post capillary PH .Actually had cardiac revived with angioplasty .

The specialist in charge of lipo-lymphoedema is microvascular Prof Mortimer who have never met .have sought help with MS sufferers re oxygen chamber & acupuncture .i have noticed FND sufferers have room there & at St Georges Hospital Tooting London there are also units for Neurological & Spina Bifida

Till moved out of London 7 yrs ago saw Professor of Research re uti flare ups 3 weekly .

the Neurologist Royal Free has watchful waiting re appts .Could I be a guinea pig ?Do nothing till I die then take my notes ignore my history whether permission given or not.
