Sorry to hear you're dealing with the balance issues daily. That has to be frustrating. Fingers crossed for a solution!
Thanks Michele, looking for a solution always!😁😊😀
you are so powerful. Please keep going. Onwards & Upwards, Light & Love always ☀️🙏🏻
Thank you so much!😁😊😀
Thank you for talking about the risks we go through daily. I started having balance issues over a decade ago and none of my doctors suggested Parkinson's disease. You are answering so many questions I've had for years. I'm finally getting doctors to listen and test me.
Oh this is fantastic news, thank you for sharing for me. It makes my day when someone is getting the help they nee. Thank you!😁😊😀
Thank you for posting this video. I especially like the part of you falling down. Sometimes when I fall down I feel like someone has given me a push.
You're welcome, I hope you are able to gain some stability in your life😁😊😀.
Thank you, David. You give me answers to things that happen to me so I can learn what to do. My balance is terrible.
Hi Julie, thank you for letting me know the channel has helped you!😁😊😀
Fear of falling is very real, especially as we get older. That’s why my morning workout begins with yoga balance exercises, standing on one foot in various postures. Listening to you also reminds me of doing judo in college, where the first lesson was how to fall to avoid injury.
John, thanks for your comment. How to fall properly to avoid injury is a great topic! Great suggestion!😁😊😀
Thank you! I developed a fear of falling years before my diagnosis. Seems like I was always tripping up stairs, over bumps, down a handicap ramp…I didn’t realize I was dragging my feet. As far as random balance issues, I “go spastic” for no apparent reason. That’s why I carry a cane every time I leave my home. Terrified of falling.
Hi Karen, I have a cane as well that has a mobility device attached to it which helps me walk when I am OFF. Thanks for your comment.😁😊😀
Thanks
You're welcome 😃😀😊
thanks David. last fall was 10 days in hospital ,crashed down the steps .first fall that hurt ,10 months and still trying to recover
Hi Michael, ouch, sorry that hurt so much😁😊😀
you give me hope ,what i find amazing is the amount of people around me with Parkinson's
@@user-hk4sm3pr5y Michael, thank you for your kind words and encouragement. 😁😁😊😊😀😀
Yes, i am very familiar with the sit/stand! lol
Come on body, ONE MORE TIME! 😁😊😀
Thanks David, all it takes is one fall. Slow down, you move too fast. That’s my new mantra. Keep those videos coming. You’re a great helper.
Hi Tom, thanks for letting me know the videos are helpful. Someone once told me the first fall is free, after that you pay for them.😁😊😀
@@LifewithParkinsons my first fall resulted in a broken shoulder. Three surgeries and eighteen months of PT later I’m almost back to 100%. I don’t want to think that was my free pass. Stay safe!
@@tomrio9914 I agree
thanks for the info
Hi Bobby. No problem!😁😊😀
Excellent talk on falls, thank you
Thanks Erin good to see you 😃😀😁
Great information ❤❤ as the disease progresses..I too have balance issues on and off. Never had it before, but this started for me about 1 year ago. Been close to falling down 16 steps a few times now. See you on the next one ❤
Hi Gopro, please don't fall ❤️!!!
@@LifewithParkinsons I will try, but as you know how it goes..
@@GoProGoalieUzi Any word on your DBS?
@@LifewithParkinsons no word yet..🫤
I lost my balance every day and falling every day this is my stress
Hello, falling everyday sounds stressful to me as well. Thank you for sharing, I hope you are able to get the help you need.😊😁😀
Everything sounds so familiar....
Driving. I remember exactly the day that I decided to quit; I drove up to the toll both at the airport and I wasn't sure which way to turn the wheel to fit the car between the booths.
For people getting dizzy when standing up, get some compression stockings so the blood can't rush and pool down in your calves as easily. Also see if you can find a couple of 'walkers' to put next to your chairs and you can use them as momentary support if the dizziness is strong.
Hi Edward, thanks for the great suggestions, the compression stockings are a fantastic idea. Sorry you had to give up driving, but I understand. I got tired of driving somewhere and then wondering where I was going lol.😁😊😀
I started to just do one thing at a time. If I'm walking and to change eyeglasses I stop and then do it. Before it was no problem, like walking and chewing gum 😂
Hi Tommy. I know what you mean. I can't multi-task either.😁😊😀

My husband’s balance issue…..at least for now…is attenuated by always drinking water with electrolytes….Keto Chow drops…Redmond salt…. Never just plain water. Even his coffee has a tiny pinch of Redmond salt in it.
Hi Dina, that is a great suggestion, especially with summer on the way, thanks!😁😊😀
