It is a lot more about how the stuff unseen by others, sort of cumulatively overwhelms. The swallowing situation causing aspiration even during sleep, or just sitting there, not even eating or drinking. The disruption of autonomic functions when the intense rigidity doesn't wake you up, in the way dystonia pain usually does, so circulation becomes impeded for much longer while the muscles do not release.
Thanks for your comment. A speech language pathologist can help improve quality of life and reduce swallowing difficulties that are associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality. For many people, a speech language pathologist is a critical member of their care team.
There is not enough evidence to answer your question with certainty. There is strong evidence that higher caffeine consumption is associated with lower risk of developing Parkinson's. However, once someone is living with Parkinson's, the effect is more difficult to estimate.

I totally agree with your statement about dying from Parkinson’s I have been telling people the same thing about if you fall and die as the result it was because of Parkinson’s and had you not had pd you may not have fallen so on and so forth.
The impacts of Parkinson's are so broad, but so are the impacts of exercise, attention, and all the many many ways to be proactive about living well. It's critical to be honest.

does instant coffee slow the progression on the affected side and on the not yet affected other side?

Coffee in general gives me the shakes, it's the caffeine
