How early can Parkinson's be diagnosed?

[@sallydavidson4471]

I'd like to see an updated version of this talk as hopefully diagnosis and treatment have advanced. Additionally the PD volunteer study should be more conclusive.

[@balanaidoo7526]

At age 82, I was diagnosed as having Parkinsonism by a UK Neurologist. He said he had the answer: the gold standard drug Sinemet. this immediately produced a dramatic improvement but ONLY FOR 1 Day! Since then it does NOTHING. He was never curious enough to ask why. Meanwhile the movement disorder progresses and now 1 year later I can barely walk, my balance and gait are very poor and i have had a few falls. I asked for an Agonist to be prescribed. I got a prescription for Rotigotine. This also does nothing! What do I do next? Dr Luis Zayas in the USA examines why Sinemet may do nothing. Worth a look.

Research should be done on all people who have depression.

Where is the answer I just don’t care or got time to hear all this crap. I’m 29 year old male and my hands are ways shaking now can I get it at 29

Thank you for trying to seek more definitive ways to diagnose Parkinsons, which right now is a torturous emotional process for patients. I still am not sure I can trust my doctor's diagnosis because dopamine is not significantly helping.

[@michaelkemp1294]

I agree. Dopamine is supposed to "switch you on" but with me absolutely nothing happens. My mind is often most alert in the middle of the night when all is quiet and I am supposed to be asleep! Does this prove anything?

Can I be looked into sub types of Parkinson’s biomarkers

[@josephbruder1225]

Had my share of concussions in my life serious car accident in 1980 no catscan available a few falls growing up as a kid

[@josephbruder1225]

Have tried many to get into a pilot study was denied every time

[@josephbruder1225]

I belive I really don’t have Parkinson’s disease no resting tremor to speak of registry very little. Memory problem and balance mild need more proof that I have Parkinson’s like dat scan or spec scan to look for LEWY bodys

[@josephbruder1225]

Don’t have much help from levadopa I feel about the same on levadopa or off don’t remember to take the Med often c/o maybe I don’t have Parkinson’s .could I have a subtype have not been impressed my neurologist all this time. Can I get checked for biomarkers

[@snookerb6777]

What studies are being done with nano-size Aluminum being used in GeoEngineering ✈ Shame if you docs don’t explore this Parkinson’s Pandemic Children under SIX years are coming down with Parkinson’s. When will any Doc stand up & question this ELDERLY DISEASE now in YOUNG people?

[@KMx108]

There's absolutely a significant environmental impact. I'd like to know why docs still stick to the characteristics shown in the elderly when making a diagnosis...completely clueless about the different presentation in younger patients.

In my case, my early diagnosis was essential Tremors that started me on the wrong medication path..that did nothing…as time went by my symptoms execrated
