Focused ultrasound
I hear so much about PD patients receiving DBS, but I never hear about them opting for focussed ultrasound instead. According to this website, focused ultrasound will cure the motor symptoms of PD, but it would only be used on people with motor symptoms in one side of their body: https://www.fusfoundation.org

DBS
Hello PWP! I thought I’d let you know and share my journey with my husband who had the DBS surgery 6 weeks ago. 2 days ago the battery was turned on and will be adjusted weekly in the next 3 weeks until the right intensity is reached. I was personally hesitant for him to do this surgery as it sounded

It’s Monthly Mira Monday 🐶
Hi Folks, hope everyone is enjoying the Bank Holiday. This pic of Mira shows just how much she likes a cuddle and has so aided my recovery along with her mum Bea. I’m doing really well, getting stronger everyday - I had some good news in I don’t need the bowel aneurysm operated on yet - I was told it

Typical med progression?
My friend started taking l-dopa within the past year. She works fulltime and her workplace isn't aware of her diagnosis. Currently she's taking 8 Sinemet 100mg daily, plus 3 or 4 Rytary 145mg. She also takes sleeping medication, and botox for curled toes. She's reading articles on DBS. Any advice

Hypothyroidism-Lyme disease connection?
Has anyone here with Hashimoto's/hypothyroidism discovered they also have Lyme disease? Or that they've had it for years? A couple of knowledgeable friends have insisted I get checked for it, but the last time I knowingly got a few ticks was back in 1995! And, yes, some of my problems might have started

Lucy Dawson: the model who got a mystery headache, a misdiagnosis – and a new mission in life
We see repeated failure to take seriously, failure to diagnose properly and long term consequences. Although not thyroid, this is an interesting article which raises the profile of autoimmune encephalitis. [i]

AMANTADINE FOR DYSKINESIA. HAVE YOU AN EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DRUG? PLEASE HELP.
Hi, I might consider this drug for Dyskinesia, if it gets too severe. My MDS is a little reluctant to prescribe it, because he says it may cause insomnia. Nevertheless, is this drug working for your dyskinesia? How long before it started working for you? My doctor said it could take 4 to 8 weeks.

What I have learned from 1 year with Early Onset PD - "Glass Half Full"
I decided to keep a journal of my journey - it has been quite a year but I have learned a lot. some of which maybe relevant for new and older PD people. I am not a doctor and this is not a medical opinion but there is lots available to make a stand against PD https://fightparkinsonsdisease.files.wordpress.com

Past VM and the COVID Vaccine
Has anyone with a past history of VM taken the COVID-19 Vaccine? And If so how did you feel afterwards? And what brand did you take? My son had viral meningitis four years ago and is concerned that the vaccine will trigger a a viral meningitis attack. With this new Delta variant I am much more concerned

Is Carbidopa/Levodopa 8x’s a day to much when you have the DBS?
My setting is on 3.30 left side, 1.00 right side. My doctor seems to give me more medicine instead of turning it up and I feel like it is causing a lot more symptoms.

Sharing DBS Journey
Hi, Just wanted to share my dad's process in case it will help anyone... He was diagnosed at 54 years old and will be 70 next month. He is rigidity dominant, experiences freezing of gait (mainly in initiating) and has dyskinesias from his meds (among many other PD symptoms!). Up until almost two years
