  • In this talk, Joy Milne recounts the story of her incredible life: while working as an NHS nurse in Scotland, she discovered she had a true superpower. She discovered she could smell the presence of Parkinson’s Disease on afflicted people far in advance of medical diagnostics. In the case of her husband, Joy was able to detect the onset of Parkinson’s 12 years before medical science could confirm what she already knew.
    Today Joy is spending her retirement working with Professor Perdita Barren at the University of Manchester Department of Chemistry to convert her superpower into a new medical diagnostic for use all over the world.
    #parkinsons
    Joy Milne spent her professional life in the care of others as a nurse in a Nightingale ward. But her life took an unexpected turn when she began to notice that her husband, a consultant anaesthetist, began to smell distinctly differently to her. Twelve years later he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease and during a visit to Parkinson’s UK she realised other patients had the same smell. She came to realise that somehow, she could smell Parkinson’s Disease in people and detect it far earlier than the NHS.
    Today, Joy is working closely with the University of Manchester and Professor Perdita Barran to better understand Joy’s incredible abilities but more importantly seek to develop a superior diagnostic that doesn’t require Joy’s personal presence. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    I could smell my friends pancreatic cancer two years before she was diagnosed. The next time I smelled that same smell it turned out to be prostate cancer about a year before his diagnosis. Both of those times I never said anything because I wasn’t sure how to tell people they may be I’ll and to go see a doctor. My husband is always freaked out when I can smell he has a cold coming on. Like you, I smelled everything as a child. To the point my mother didn’t ever want to take me places because I would pick up all sorts of things to smell them, even tinned goods in a grocery store.

      When I was pregnant i was walking down the grocery aisle and smelled a strong smell of blueberries. I thought that was strange because i wasn’t near the fresh foods. When i left the aisle i saw a display of canned blueberries. I thought that was odd. I could smell all sorts of things when i was pregnant that i can’t smell when I’m not pregnant.

    I was diagnosed with PD 2.5 years ago, at the age of 67. I had been unwittingly symptomatic for 2-3 years before that. One of my early symptoms was dermatitis, which at the time I thought was due to sun exposure. I live in a high UV zone; Nelson, New Zealand . I had greasy, sometimes flaky, skin around my upper face, especially my forehead, temples, under my eyes and near my nose. I also had a greasy scalp, neck, chest and shoulders. Over the last year or two this greasiness appears to have accelerated. Over the last few months I have become increasingly stinky, which I have attributed to my sebum. My first thought was that the smell was reminiscent of charred cotton rags, but I now realise that the yeasty/musty description is pretty close.
    Every 12 months I am examined and treated by my dermatologist for skin lesions, usually solar keratoses and the occasional basal cell carcinoma and/or squamous cell carcinoma. Last year I brought to his attention my greasy face and scalp. He appeared to be baffled as to why I even mentioned it. I am due for my next examination in a few weeks. I have been taking great care to avoid direct UV exposure and I think he’ll be pleased with the result - very little to find. I will raise again the issue of my oily skin, and the stink which, to me, appears almost overpowering.
    While I have had the usual tremors, clenching toes, stiff/sore back in particular, and bradykinesia, I have been able to continue with my usual activities of mountain hiking, trail running, cycling, table tennis and pickleball. I have even managed to raise the bar, averaging about 25 hours a week of physical activities. I engage in a number of exercises/stretches/therapies to address my symptoms, and have had quite a bit of success. I no longer suffer from a stiff and sore back, afternoon fatigue, or apathy, and I am more motivated. I have always had a positive attitude towards my Parkinson’s, and did not allow it to get me down.

    Yes, I learned of using my sense of smell for diagnosis in 2012, early in my education journey towards becoming a nurse. I successfully diagnosed a patient with C-Diff that way, from her stool. Dogs have been trained to detect cancer. I believe they can be trained to detect any disease under the sun. I hope this woman is successful in her quest.

The test takes 24 hours to come back but one of her nurses reassured her that she does not have it because the nurse stated that she can smell when patients have c-diff. I'm so grateful for that nurse; I don't think she'll ever know.

      "Nurse" is an honourable and esteemed profession, with a lot of variety in the sorts of things nurses know and do. It sounds like her experience as a nurse helped her refine her interpretations of scents within a medical context, and her medical experience and knowledge improve her credibility. Which other descriptions would be better? Attentive wife? Hyperosmatic British woman? Enthusiastic research subject?

    I could smell my Father (he had Parkinson's, but also oesophageal cancer). It was a sickly, sour /sweet smell and I had no idea that no one else could smell it. It wasn't until I met a friend of my partners, who was telling my partner that he hadn't been well and was getting some tests. He had the exact same strong smell that my Father had. When we walked away, I said he's got cancer, which shocked my partner. A month later, he died. The cancer was all through him.

    This was an incredible story that Mrs. Milne told. I want to personally show my gratitude for the work that she has done one the research of Parkinson’s and the impact that this disease has had on her own personal life. I think it’s remarkable that someone would be able to detect the change of a person’s odor as they start to develop Parkinson’s. It would take even more courage in this age to speak up and tell someone that you have an ability to detect Parkinson’s in people. I feel like most people would think you’ve gone crazy or would think you are some kind of a fraud. To be able to not only stand up for yourself, but to go on and have a research study conducted to prove it is remarkable.
    With the study that was conducted, although the sample size was small, I think the results of the study were significant to show that there is some kind of smell change associated with Parkinson’s. I’m glad that this was enough to push for a “Nose to Diagnose” so that more research could be conducted on the specific biomarkers for Parkinson’s. I do think that another limitation of the study was that it was only conducted with male participants. I would like to see more research on if the same smell changes are associated with female patients with Parkinson’s.
    I think that based on the results of this research, a screening test for Parkinson’s could be held earlier on for anyone who wants it. If there is a specific change in odor, being able to identify this change and then respectfully trying to prevent Parkinson’s progression could impact a lot of peoples’ lives. If we could start treating Parkinson’s earlier, then people could potentially live longer without the devastating body impacts that this disease has. In keeping with the medical law of justice, we could then give people the option to choose if they wanted to get screened or not for Parkinson’s.

    While I certainly do not have this sofisticated of nose . . I have been smelling and sorting and politely not sharing acute differences and likely dis-ease in otheres most of my life.
    I'm now 70 and realized a few years back that I had developed an exact, same and unique musk that my Mother exhibited at around my age. I cared for her through the end of her life some 15 years later. The journey was not good.
    There are no accidents.
    I've no idea HOW to identify or WHO to even attempt to tell. Conservative medicine ignores all this.
    What this talk does give me is hope that one day folks will be respected, supported and maybe even able to receive compationate care rather then Medical labels, invasive, painful and often expensive procedures or Pharmacitical perscriptions.

    We dermatologists have observed for years that patients with many CNS (Central Nervous System) problems, including Alzheimers, strokes, post head injuries, tend to have seborrheic dermatitis. This is a pink, scaly inflammation of the skin in areas rich in oil glands and oil production. By far the worst affected patients I have seen were those with Parkinson's and Lewy body dementia. They do have a distinctive smell, which I always thought was the smell of sebum itself. It is fascinating that it can be detected by mass spectrometry, and with much more useful sensitivity!

    we are all born covered in vernix caseosa-which is essentially sebum. Could disease be present & detected as early as this by Ms. Milne?
    Is Ms Milne's astounding ability, by default, technically considered a disability by the medical establishment? as in the mechanical logic of why she has this ability would pathologically be considered a defect.?

    There is a little known result of integrating habits and creating routine. You come alive.
    Because you are steadfast in prioritizing self-care, you may find that anxiety and depression have less of a foothold. Because you streamline that which previously took effort, you regain time in your day. You have space to unfurl.

    Her story is a demonstration of evolution in action. Every generation, evolution tries a few tweaks. Most result in nothing, but the tweak that Joy Milne received gave her the ability to sense the odour of Parkinson's Disease. Possibly she is the only one on the planet that can detect the odour.
    Think of this in an animal perspective. Suppose there is getting to be a great shortage of food. Then an animal comes along that can detect this odour, which in its case is another source of food. So this animal can find the food and will probably successfully reproduce and the ability to detect this odour will be passed along to the offspring.

    God loves you and takes care of you for the arrival of this message to you. God is the one who created this universe and He is the one who controls it. The biggest loss that a person loses in this life is to live while he does not know God and the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the prophets and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. From the great intelligence of any person before he He believes in something or does not believe in it, that he read it, study it, and understand it well, and then he has the choice and judgment on it. I advise you to do so before you do not have time for that.

      It's probably her trying to talk clearly, with dentures, or something. Why would you post a comment like that? Do you expect her to take it as constructive criticism of her public speaking skills? Something she'll work on in the future? No. Do you think it's possible, that you really don't want to listen to people, and so u just found a reason why you "can't"? There was no reason to post that comment...besides declaring how "special" you are, & just plain making fun of her. You need to self-reflect a bit buddy.

      Turn your volume all the way down and either click on the "CC" at the top to read the Closed Captions or click on "...more" underneath the title. Then, under "Transcript", click on "Show Transcript". That way, you can read it, instead of listening. Lots of people's mouths get dry when they're giving a speech and not everyone can sip water while they're up there, so maybe just reading the info instead of listening would be a solution for you.

    " recent finding published in JAMA* that describes an accurate new test that found in a "cross-sectional study of 428 participants, the proportions of individuals with cutaneous phosphorylated α-synuclein detected by skin biopsy were 92.7% with PD, 98.2% with MSA, 96.0% with DLB, 100% with PAF, and 3.3% with no history of synucleinopathy (controls). Meaning that this simple skin test identified people with Parkinsons and related disorders with high accuracy.
