CHAPTER 6.THE SEARCH FOR HOPE "OUTSIDE" THE BUBBLE: OTHER NEUROLOGISTS, OTHER MEDICINES, OTHER DISEASES...
Explanation: I would like to share this chapter with all of you. Because of a worsening in my mother's health, I don't know when I will be able to resume the English translation of my book on curing Parkinson's. I will be sharing some chapters in this extraordinary forum. I have to stop my investigation

News that worried us and studies that gave us hope (04/2022).
This is the information that gave us hope while my father was alive and has given hope to many since then (March 2012). 1. News that worried us. In the coming decades the number of Parkinson's disease patients is feared to increase very worryingly, to double by 2030 (Dorsey 2007) and even to triple

Next experiment
I read that nicotine can help PD. So I'm trying nicotine patches. I cut one patch into 4 pieces and stuck one on my arm. A couple hours later my stomach is growling loudly. Normally that doesn't happen. I assume gastroparesis is involved. Other than that no problems.

Tobacco?
There's been recent comments on tobacco. Years ago I was researching MS and came on medical reports on the use of nicotine patches for PD. I didn't go deeper into it but never forgot it either. Now I'm wondering if I should try it. I'm against smoking. That's why I never tried pot smoking.

Nicotine as a Nootropic, and Ways to Get it Without Smoking
Nicotine
gets a bad rap because it's associated with smoking and
addiction
. But if you take it safely and in the right way, its benefits might surprise you. There’s a lot more to
nicotine
than smoking and

3 weeks done.
3 weeks of not smoking. Physical side effects gone. Still crave a cigarette every day but haven't given in. Using nicotine patches which seem to be working. Sense of smell has definitely improved. I can smell smoke on other people which I couldn't before. Still have a slight cough but nothing compared

My quit journey a long and garbled story
By the time I was admitted to hospital I was in the throes of
nicotine
addiction
withdrawal. They asked many questions and took many tests. “How far can you normally walk without getting breathless?” asked a nice young doctor.

Do you think it’s better to quit smoking cold turkey or using nicotine patches? Thank you.

Is Parkinson's disease a lifestyle disease? 1. Parkinsonian lifestyle (higher risk).
(Excerpt from the book I am writing now. I hope you find it useful). Is Parkinson's disease a lifestyle disease? 1. Parkinsonian style (increased risk of developing the disease) I have less and less doubts about the existence of a "Parkinsonian" way of life, which predisposes and increases the risk

Advice please
I have smoked since I was 13. I'm 35 now. I stopped once for 5 years then started again a year ago. I smoke more than ever now and can really feel the effects. I so desperately want to stop but I can't use nicotine patches I've had bad reactions to them. I can't go cold turkey because I become a monster

Stopping smoking
I’m on day 18, I am all over the place. I feel forgetful at times and just have moments I feel so awful in myself. My skin is worse, I’ve put weight on. I don’t know how to handle the cravings. I’ve got a vape and nicotine patches, can anyone advise anything more that could work please?

Vitamin D the sunshine vitamin
A study was done on breast cancer patients and found that most were lacking in vitamin D. I am a breast cancer survivor I take 8000 vitamin D daily. It is not too far-fetched to feel that most autoimmune problems also are related to a lack of vitamin D as many people with this problem live in the Pacific

Recent ex-smoker, first time poster
Hello! I have been meaning to find a community since I started so I stop boring my roommates with details. I also work in a creative tech industry where people get defensive and shamed when anyone talks about trying to get healthier. :p This is my third time trying, but the first time it’s stuck for

DO YOU FIND SMOKING RELAXING? HERE ARE 5 REASONS WHY.
Feeding the
nicotine
addiction
will obviously reverse these effects and make you feel calmer and so because of this, you begin to associate smoking with feeling relaxed.

Hi I'm new to posting! Looking for advice on nicotine patches 😊
Hi everyone! I'm just finishing day 10 of being smoke free using nicotine patches and hoping for some advice from those who have quit using this method before 😊. Originally I started using step 1 of niquitin clear strips which I found a nightmare. The strips fell off almost constantly and they were

I'm also not sure if this makes my quitting experience different from those who had
nicotine
addiction
prior to using QM.

Share your quitting success stories: What helped you quit smoking?
Truthfully, creating a lasting change in life is tough enough (for me at least) without the added burden of
nicotine
addiction
making it even harder. That said, it is NEVER too late to quit and it IS absolutely worth the effort.
