anyone got any comments on this article? I was diagnosed with PD this summer . My older brother passed away from a Glioblastoma in 2009. This article really has me thinking!

"There is now accumulating evidence for an inverse association between Parkinson's Disease (PD) and cancer (1–3). Studies suggest that people affected by a neurodegenerative disorder have a reduced incidence for most cancers (4, 5)."

The probability of developing either is highly influenced by diet and environmental toxins and personal genes influence which one is most likely to develop first. If you develop one, the treatments probably reduce the likelihood of developing the other.
