Hi! You're an amazing soul! So inspiriing and motivating. My husband has Parkinson's. Between stages 2-3 and he's doing awesome! He sounds so much like you. He drives, cooks, cleans, etc. I love his attitude and love him with my entire being. We accept that he has it now. I had a challenging time accepting it, I was in denial. Thinking it was stress. Deep down I realized I knew. He's 65 and we think he's had it longer, but we were dealing with other issues. I'm a powerful patient advocate, and I want what's right for him to get the proper help, resources, support, and everything else. Whatever he chooses to do, I will support him. What you're doing is a huge gift. I can't thank you enough. I do have some concerns about the levodopa med he's on. It seems to help him, although we're hearing it may not the right way to start. Ngl, this has been challenging. But, Idc, I only hope and pray I will be half as strong for him as he's been for me! We're members of Dr. Micahael Hyland PT, and admire him so much. I'm so grateful that this is helping you!! Thank you for sharing your genuine self with us. We appreciate you. 💯‼💪🏻✨🦋💛 What a strong soul you are!

Hello Pamela, thank you for your kind and encouraging words. I am so glad to hear that you and your husband have been able to work through the pain and shock of the disease, and are getting back to living. That in itself is a victory. I appreciated everything that Dr Michael Hyland is doing for Parkinson's. What a special person. Please see the video link where I examine levodopa myths. Thank you!😊😁😃 kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4Pcip2cZa2Gfq8

@@LifewithParkinsons ......Is this correct.".Many Parkinson’s disease symptoms result from groups of neurons that fire abnormally in unison. Using computer modeling, Dr. Peter Tass's team discovered they could reset these abnormal firings by providing a patterned stimulus with vibrations of 100-300 hertz (per second), ideal being around 15,000 RPM."....Was Vilim ball constructed to these specs?

The medication you’re taking most likely is to affect dopamine levels and if you do your research on what elevates dopamine levels that might help you to see, maybe that the carnivore diet can facilitate the development of more dopamine and reducing the sugars won’t interfere with dopamine production or development those are just my thoughts and then I know there’s other videos with people that have Don carnivore and got off of their medication so maybe your answer is right in front of you just my thoughts. I did see that when I researched just minimally that dopamine is produced by protein and is that medication giving you protein necessary to develop the dopamine or is the medication a blocker to keep it in your system kind of like a SSRI

Hi David, has anyone else had experience with one of the diabetes medications? I 0:48 know Ozempic has received all the attention, but I have been using semaglutide the last month and have felt pretty damn good. I don’t have diabetes or need to lose weigh. FYI also, i believe there are several trials on semaglutide and Parkinson’s. Not claiming a cure but it’s been pretty damn good for me.

My dad has not been able to sleep well at all since Nov. 20th because his tremors get really bad when he lies down to sleep. He is absolutely miserable!

There is an easy way to deal with what's going on. He has a nickname, goes by "the good physician" or the "chain breaker" The Good Shepard. His name is Jesus Christ. John 3:16 for God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. & KJV 1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: I used to use needles and shoot up street drugs. Pop pills not prescribed. Chain smoked cigarettes. Jesus changed everything in my life. I know that you were prescribed what you're taking. Jesus can "break those chains" too, you don't have to do this alone sir. just call upon his name. Talk to him, I'm serious. I went back a day into my utube history to find your testimony. I was looking up amitriptyline that I was prescribed by my doctor & decided NOT to take it. The bottle sits in my medicine cabinet & I'm gonna trash it after seeing what you & others are going through. I wanted more info on this medication. Thank you for your testimony... Now when you're alone buy yourself in a room talk to Jesus, you don't have to do this alone. Just talked to him like he's there because he is.... God bless you sir. I'm throwing the bottle of amitriptyline away tomorrow. I'll take my chances with a little extra pain...

Thank you for your work to help people to fight with parkinson's. Just want to add what I do that helps me a lot. 2 years ago i heard about vibrating gloves and decided to try something similar. I bought vibrating ball, peanuts, platform, and rollers and every morning do vibration to whole body. On laps, under knees, on sides, back, arms, and shoulders. The same time I hold something vibrated on hands to vibrate my fingertips. Also on feet and toes are ends of a lot of nerves, so I put vibrating peanut there too. I do it almost every morning for more than 2 hours. All that helps make my muscles to become a lot stronger and nerves connecting with brain. There is one more thing I do: on youtube is a lot of videos with parkinson's music. It vibrate the brain with 528hz frequency and I listening to it for a few hours a day, hope it helps also. Wish everyone good health and success to fight for better life.
