    Marijuana works for my symptoms of Parkinson's without side affects with one exception and that is munchies! I trust the plant more than something from big pharma. By the way, I have been living with Parkinson's for over twenty years. Four years ago I received a recumbent tadpole trike as a gift and started riding. The exercise in conjunction with medical cannabis have improved thee quality of my life and the lives of my family, my caregivers.

    I am a Scottish author who was diagnosed with Parkinson's four years ago. My next book, a charity book for PD, is about Parkinson's stories and I'd love an entry from the USA. This is what I am looking for. INTRODUCTION This book gathers stories from the Parkinson's community. With more than 40 symptoms, no two Parkinson’s sufferers seem the same. I decided to make this book a useful expression of Parkinsonian experiences. I have asked these questions to people with Parkinson’s Disease: What did you do before you got PD? Recall the moment you were diagnosed. Were you working at the time and, if so, did your work put in place any adjustments? How are you coping now? What can you still do? What can't you do now? Please finish your narrative (3 or 4 pages) with a section entitled CURIOUS FACTS about yourself or your experiences. Please send them to me at netherholm6@yahoo.com and the book will emerge. Thank you to all who contribute. I can send you the four chapters | have already if you contact me. Thank you.

    As a person suffering from Parkinson's Disease I am absolutely thrilled at this good news. There are millions in the USA with this awful plague. No two people with PD have the same set symptoms. It's like a smorgasbord of symptoms and all we have right now are symptom relievers. No cure in sight. With the funding of more research perhaps we can find something before more people succumb. PD is on the rise around the world. Please help support PD research so we can find a cure for this disease.

    There are plenty of studies which indicate that endorphins play a role in enhancing the release of dopamine and we all know the role that dopamine (or the lack of it) plays in the symptoms of PD. Exercise promotes the release of endorphins and this, at least in some people, will lift your natural dopamine levels without the side effects levadopa/carvadopa. I'm 71 and was diagnosed with PD about 5 years ago. Since my diagnosis I've concentrated on resistance training and stead-state cardio (mainly brisk walking). Since I began a program which I've refined over the years, the progression of my symptoms has slowed markedly and my quality of life has improved. I'm now fitter and stronger than I have ever been. When I am unable to excercise for a period of more than a day or two I *really* notice an upturn in my PD symptoms. Another thing I discovered is that creatine monohydrate (suggested as protective in at least one study) has also made a huge difference, significantly improving my stamina both physically and mentally. Exercise is natural and (at least in my case) the single most effective mitigation against PD, at least at the stage I find myself on my PD journey.
