Parkinson's Progression Palliative and End of life issues

[@Lalaland-q2z]

My wife who had Parkinson's for 22 years died in 2022 in her instance she did quite well for 19 years then dementia came about and medicine for it did very little for her and she needed 24/7 nursing home care . After a bout with a skin disease ,Bulbous Permphigoid that spread into her mouth she quickly went in to a coma and died within a month. Her USA death certficate states she died of "Parkinsoniasm" . Recently I have heard of this skin disease becoming in some instances Parkinson related ,the Drs did cure her BP ,however she remained in the coma and soon lost her swallowing functions . She never knew she was dying and had no pain. So tragic and swift from conversational to death in 32 days.

I would like to hear the logic in making people who are bradycardia and low bp move more which increases risk chance of fall which can cause significant injury ..

Really odd how we get diagnosed with cancer or Parkinson's, but rarely does the disease itself kill someone. It's usually a secondary issue, caused by the disease, that technically causes death. Like my mother had cancer and fought that battle for almost a decade, when it finally won...did she die of cancer? No, she died of respiratory failure. So, I think, this is where statistics get even more unreliable. If a doctor has to put a cause of death, it's great to be technical and they should be, but there should also be a secondary category for recording, just like the disease. So, the cause of death should be Cancer as a primary, and respiratory failure as secondary or vice versa.

Well done, thank you

This was informative and helpful. Sadly in 2022 Canada access to specialists and GPs is limited so all the discussions, medication adjustments and end of life "conversations" with health professionals is not available.

I’m surprised PD still isn’t a notifiable condition
