hi camper,

i have cbd i was diagnosed at the age of 49 in 2007, cortico basal

degeneration as its called is a degenerative tau protein brain disease

it presents classically with progressive numbness and then loss of one

hand, jerking of the fingers, slowness and awkwardness for dexterous

acts and an alien limb, loss of balance, and trouble swallowing,cbd is

about ten times less common than psp, you may also get disturbances

of eye movements like you do with psp, there is a slow but relentless

progression of the disorder which may start involve firstly the arm and/

or leg on one side and then the arm and/ or leg on the other side,

kind regards,

ray
