Parkinsonism

Did You Ever Use A Permethrin Product Prior To Diagnosis? Clothing spray / Ointment / Flea "bomb"
Permethrin is associated with greatly increased risk of getting Parkinson's and a higher death rate from Parkinson's. According to the study accompanying the above charts: https://www.tinyurl.com/f5eecx6e "Counties with elevated production of high-permethrin crops exhibited PD mortality rates of 11.4

Is conjunctivitis a sign of Parkinson's?
One eye is glued shut each morning. I need to splash hot water in my eyes to flush the mucous out. Is eye inflammation a Parkinson's symptom?

What I learned only now after ten years.
What I learned today that in the ten years past no doctor has taught. Ref: Levodopa, the “bible”. “The New Parkinson’s Disease Treatment Book” Dr. Eric Ahlskog, Chair of Movement Disorders Mayo Clinic. I learned I must determine the optimum dose. What helps reduce symptoms. Thereafter I determine how

Researchers developing safe and affordable way to produce antibodies with aim of global access to treatment.
New method uses yeast to grow antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses. The current outbreak of a rapidly spreading global disease has caused an urgent need for effective therapies. Many vaccines, however, pose logistical challenges; they must often be transported and stored at very low temperatures

Stage 4 Metastatic Prostate Cancer AND NOW also Parkinsonism and PSP
Well, my husband was just also diagnosed with
Parkinsonism
(not Parkinson's Disease) and PSP (Progressive Subneural Palsy). We thought his issues were due to either chemo brain or ADT. After seeing a Neurologist at Stanford, he received the PSP diagnosis. He's gettting tested for ALS next month.

Hypothyroidism (treated liothyronine (T3)), hyperparathyroidism (waiting for an operation),
parkinsonism
(PD?) (25/100carb/levodopa), and hypertension (5mg amlodipine) The neurologist has a question mark over the PD so I was wondering whether any of the following symptoms are not PD?

Women with Parkinson's - can meeting their needs unlock new treatments to better manage, slow, halt or even cure Parkinson's?
Symptoms of PD differ between the genders with women suffering more from anxiety, depression and dyskinesia to mention a few. Women also suffer symptom fluctuations for many reasons such as hormonal fluctuations and body weight. However, treatment of women with PD remains the same regardless of these
