Has anyone experienced changes io their body odour?
I have never had a strong natural scent (honestly!). However, even with a much reduced sense of smell, I noticed a change to my body odour in the year or so post diagnosis. Then, when I started sinemet, my body odour returned to normal! One of the more trivial changes with PD, but i should be interested

He is now not sure if I have Parkinsons or
Parkinsonism

The effect of cannabis on the lungs - share your experience
Many people don’t realise the effects smoking cannabis can have on your lung health. A report by the British Lung Foundation (BLF) found that just three cannabis cigarettes can cause the same damage as 20 tobacco cigarettes as the tar from cannabis cigarettes contain 50% more cancer causing carcinogens

Medication ,everyone with PD should be aware of this.
Branded medicines undergo a rigorous process of clinical trials assessing safety and effectiveness before they are approved for human use. However, generic medicines can be approved on the basis of pharmacokinetic studies carried out on a minimal number of healthy volunteers, Generic medicines

Research finds Ocular Tremors in people with Parkinson's Disease.
I was reading on the National Parkinson's Disease site today and found this to be extremely interesting. I have this symptom, but was told it was not a symptom of Parkinson's. Now it has been proven it is. If you haven,t read about this check out the link to read about Ocular Tremor in persons diagnosed

Muscle cramps/pain
I can't remember who posted the information below, however, I was telling my sister about it. She said she had read that when you have cramping, Charlie Horses, muscle tightness, etc. to eat a teaspoon of mustard. Mustard has Tumeric as an ingredient. I have tried it and it has helped my toe cramps.

Who are you calling incurable?
One of the first things we learn about Parkinson's disease, rightly or wrongly, is that it is incurable. Sometimes we learn that from our neurologist, sometimes from the Internet or other sources. But for all patients struggling to come to terms with the diagnosis, incurable is not a word we want to
