Reducing pain in Parkinson's

Around 70% of patients with Parkinson's suffer from chronic pain yet there has been relatively little research into this area. Dr Monty Silverdale at the University of Manchester decided to take matters into his own hands.

You should put research into sciatic nerve pain in Parkinson's.

When do you get to the point?

Bravo for the studiy on pain and fibromyalgia! Going to see if you have it here on KZbin. Have had fibromyalgia since 1986, and last year developed RLS which goes into my arm, usually only the left one. When I am tired sometimes my fingers shake when I go to keyboard, or di tasks that require fine motor skills. Have heard RLS can put people at a higher risk for Parkinsos. My paternal grandmother developed it in her later years. So far Requip has managed symptoms, tried going a few weeks without it and went into a 3 hour attack that almost sent me to the hospital. If the shaking get any worse I will of course see my doctor, but for now it isn't a major issue. Once a month, and then I just stop doing whatever it is I was doing. Meanwhile, I DO wonder if there's a bullseye on my back!

The volume is very quiet for me, anyone else experiencing the same?

Hi Shazia - we've just taken a look and it the volume should be fine. We'd suggest headphones?
