Parkinsons

[manxie]

Just to let my pals know I Saw a consultant neurologist on Thursday and was told I have early onset Parkinsons.

A bit of a bummer and I half expected it but still not what I wanted to hear.

I intend to carry on regardless tho and just be my usual cheeky self hehe.

Oh Manxie I am so sorry, horrid news.

I've had a bit of experience of it, an aunt had it for many years, and a family member has it now, also diagnosed when early-onset.
That was about about 5 years ago now,and she is very well, still driving, going to aquaerobics etc; the drugs now are amazingly good.
You already have problems I know, but let's hope this will just be a little nuisance (((x)))

Sad news, Manxie, very sad, but as Di and Saundra have said today's medications are working wonders.

Huge (((((M))))) mate, keep well, and keep on being you.
