Everything You Need To Know About Parkinson's Disease

I’m very excited to have something that I can look at and determine what’s wrong with my hands and legs and all. These tremors are driving me crazy.Is very easy to follow what’s going on with your book reading. It’s so much easier for me now. To understand what’s going on now.

Not informative as I wanted

Finally a book about Parkinson’s that I can understand, a book that gives me as a caregiver so much useful information and my husband with PD a more optimistic view as he progresses thru this disease. Even if you are just curious about the disease, perhaps know someone that has just been diagnosed or wonder if there is something you might just be missing in your maintenance program, this book is excellent, easy reading, organized and informative.

I have Parkinson and it was funny as I was reading it was talking to me....... Hell the book is about me. I picked many useful things that will help me. I give this book two thumbs up.

I felt that I was misled by the title of this book. The information seemed confined to the traditional medical model of treating the disease.To its credit, the book did cover the basics of PD - types, diagnosis, prognosis, signs, symptoms, and medications. My expectation from the title was that newer non-standard treatments would also be discussed. There was a section titled "Alternative Treatments" which was just a few pages and very cursory. Currently there are other non-traditional approaches in which PD individuals are even reversing their symptoms. The author didn't mention these except for glutathione therapy which is promising.There were also some helpful suggestions in how to deal with specific symptoms of Parkinson's such as swallowing difficulties, constipation, and mobility.I will continue to research online as that content is free - newsletters, Youtube videos, websites devoted to alternative effective therapies, webinars, archived interviews, etc.This would serve as a basic guide about PD, but for that I felt it was overpriced at $34. I have purchased other more helpful books about health that were less than $20.

Good enough

Although I was hesitant about finding out how bad things can get with PD, my fears have been replaced with knowledge and insight as I begin this journey with my diagnosed husband , who after 3 years is beginning to exhibit some slight progression of the disease. But our love and devotion will get us through this. Thank you for this book!

I liked that the book didn’t use a lot of medical terms I couldn’t understand, and when it did use medical jargon, it was carefully explained. Down to earth info.

There is so much to be learned about Parkinsons Disease from this book. I am glad I ordered the book and I would recommend it to others as a good source for becoming more informed. Sincerely.

A good read but with little new...
