    As a newly diagnosed Parkinson’s patient your podcast has given me hope and courage to fight or advocate for my needs. It’s been almost 2 months since I was diagnosed. I’m excited to enroll in a local Tock Solid Boxing group and tomorrow we call University of Utah Neurological Clinic to schedule an appointment with a MDS. Thank you!! You have helped us get through the scary moments of dyskinesia and depression. ❤

You make it more about the condition (I struggle with using disease) of Parkinson’s yet I feel you are friends. I’m 14 years in on the PD journey. Keep up the great work! 🥰

    I discovered your channel recently and I love to watch you guys. Lot of good information and is good to see people with PD talking about their routine. I don’t know nobody who has PD. I was diagnosed with PD 10 years ago and for almost 8 years I hidden my symptoms.
    I’m Brazilian and I have been living here ( Massachusetts/ Martha’s Vineyard) for 17 years. I don’t speak English very well but I understand everything when I’m watching the podcast. My symptoms stared getting worse and I m preparing do have DBS surgery. The DbS was scheduled for July/ 2023 but I cancelled because I was worried about.
    I have learned so much with you guys 🙏🏻❤

      Every person living with PD experiences different symptoms at different times. But check out all our videos @thesecretlifeofparkinsons. There are also other places like The Michael J. Fox Foundation, Parkinson's Foundation, Davis Finney Foundation, and the Brian Grant Foundation.

    My sister has just been diagnosed. They think she has had it for two years. She is 79. She has a mild case, they told her but she has symptoms that she is very concerned about. She does have tremors in her hands, face, and sometimes in her legs and feet. Her voice seems to go on occasion. Her writing is declining. Her gait is improving with rigorous exercise; walking, a stationary bike, Parkinson's brain exercises, and speech therapy online. She has some questions about the drugs they want her to take (she doesn't want to). Can a person take meds for a few days to see if it works to clear some symptoms, and then stop the meds? She wants to see if it has an effect at all to take the drugs and if so, which drugs are most recommended? Also, which of you are on Sinemet? How often per day and for how many years have you taken it? Is it working? Also, Have any of you experienced a kind of brain fog? My sister says it is constantly in her brain and she wants it to go away, feels like cobwebs. It creates confusion and imbalance.

    • @thesecretlifeofparkinsons
      @thesecretlifeofparkinsons  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I am on Sinemet. That is the gold standard medication that most people take. I've been taking it for 3 years and yes it is extremely helpful to me! They usually start people off by taking 1/2 pill 3 times a day until you can work your way up to a full pill 3 times a day (if you go all in right away chances of nausea as a side effect would occur). But you won't notice an immediate change. At least I didn't. Mine was probably 4-6 weeks. But it was one of those things that I kind of stopped thinking about my symptoms only to realize I stopped thinking as much about them because I wasn't experiencing them due to the meds kicking in. I used to have brain fog as well, but reducing stress, exercising and medication seemed to help alleviate that. The doctor would probably want her to be on it for at least 6 months I would guess before making a decision to come off of it. But as it was in my case, once I started it, I didn't want to come off because of the benefit I was experiencing. Hope this helps.

      Thank you for your podcast. I really like the Organic nature and less about all the terrible things about PD. The Beech Band guy is really on to something! I know personally, the less I think about having PD and its effects on me, the less effect it has. Can’t wait to get my Band! While watching your New Year’s Day episode Jessica, I could tell you were really thinking about the effects of PD.
      Your show about hanging with your girlfriends and the dopamine release is so true! My happy place is being at the ranch. I forget to take my meds.
      I was clinically diagnosed 3 yrs ago, at 62. I remember my emotions ran crazy. Crying almost uncontrollably telling my wife I feel like such a failure. My diagnosing Dr was terrible! He immediately prescribed sinemet staring at 1-25/100 4/day, increasing .5 pill every week until I reached 2-4/day. I messed up. 4/day is 24/4 which equaled terrible on/offs. I ended up in the ER twice because my anxiety was running wild. My wife disagreed so I called the pharmacist and he said 24/4. I was referred to another Neurologist in the same office. Who is wonderful. He is a movement specialist. Very involved in the treatment of PD. My 1st visit lasted almost 2 hrs. I asked about 24/4 and he said no, waking hrs/4. He also prescribed Neupro 10mg/day transdermal patches, an agonist Rx. Along with Rasagiline 1mg/day. Rasagilne is an antidepressant. Once I got my emotions in check, and realized my life wasn’t ending, I feel very blessed. I also have a wonderful primary care Dr who I’ve seen 25 yrs. He referred me to the Neurologist for a nerve test in my feet. I remember telling him, the first time I went back after my PD diagnosis, this is such a mind game. If I continually think about PD and its affect on me, the more affect it has. So I don’t tell myself, when I’m trying to do something physical, I have PD and I can’t do it. I just Do It!
      After doing some research on sinemet, I was concerned with the amount the first Dr had prescribed. I asked my current PD Dr about taking a lower dosage and he said that was fine. I now take 1-25/100 3/day starting when I wake up. If I’m out in the evening I’ll take my fourth dose at 7ish. When visiting with other folks dealing with PD I’m amazed at the number who have no idea what Rx they are taking and why? If I hadn’t questioned the first Drs Rx, I wouldn’t be doing as well as I am.
      Thanks again for all you and Brian are doing. May God continue to Bless you both.
