Stages of PD

[BaileyT]

I have been stage one for 7 years. Is there a chance I would always

be stage one? Or is it just a matter of time. Thanks

The simple answer is-we don"t know.All indivuals are different.You might be lucky,and stay as you are indefinitly.On the other hand.....

Best advice is to keep monitering yourself,and have regular check ups with your GP/Specialist.

Lucky you......I wouldn't worry about any other stages, just take one day at a time and smell the roses.....what's your secret?

Praise God!!! My dr a Rush in Chicago told me right after diagn something I repeat everyday. "you may never get any worse than you are today!". That was January 2003. I have a tiny bit. The word stages is an ugly word. It means to expect more to me. Let's dont do that. It only invites worry and stress. I am so happy for your good health!!

Thank you all for your answers. I am so grateful to have

found it? Everyone is so kind

We don't know what Stage my husband is at and I'm not sure I want to know. It seems so arbitrary. I know many people who are doing great on low dose meds and others who are constantly tweaking their meds because they haven't found the right combination yet. It is a strange condition and hjopefully one day they will be able to cure for everyone.

Right, everybody's different. First thing my neuro told me is 'don't let it progress!'!!! I noticed a progression after a bout of bronchitis a year ago. Graduated from cane to walker. But I'm walking in the Parkinson's Unity Walk on Sat. April 28th on Team BOLD MOVES.

I don't know about stages. I don't have any tremors or pain. I have great difficulty in walking and just getting around. Balance is really bad. My mind isn't doing too well either. Can't remember names, and the word I want to use. So what stage is this. Difficulty in typing. Can't really do anything that requires a lot og mocement.

Nice to hear some good news, and my sympathy for those more deeply afflicted.
