Don't really understand what is really going on with my body. PD is a part of what is wrong with me. My question is if PD can be cured?

No cure for PD has been found yet. But, the good news is that with the medication that we have now (mainly levodopa) you can expect at least 10 years with a good quality of life, assuming that nothing else gets you first. Aim to do a lot of exercise and to continue to socialize.

This assumes that you really do have PD, misdiagnosis is common.

My understanding from everything I read the answer is no. It can only be controlled.

Multiple conditions

PD+cancer.

We have control of what we eat and if, we do exercise. Not the cure your looking for but it helps me arrest both conditions.

The later was not cured with chemo but an alternate approach, Budwig protocol diet. Look it up. PD “cured” with strenuous exercise. Spin bike, speed walking, yoga.
