Going in for a brain scan next week...at least it's partially treatable, so have my fingers crossed!
 
Keep us posted!
 
My mother in law lived with parkinsons for 30+ years. Loads of treatments out there to make it more comfortable for those who suffer. Let us know how things go!
 
Good luck, Jerry
 
did year long study of azilect (approved for parkisons) and still on it (off lable) is it helping now, not sure.
 
From MND (either ALS or PLS) to Parkinson's is a big jump.
Not saying that Parkinson's is a "walk in the park" but if you are fated to have a neurological problem, rather to have that one than MND.

Good luck with your appointment.

Thanks everyone.
Some of my symptoms match to Parkinson's....so I am bouncing in my emotions.
I will be glad when this is resolved....
 
I am hoping for the best for you!
 
Easy, but long. 6 hours at the hospital.
Next week for results.
 
Well results came quicker than expected....normal; very unlikely any chance of Parkinson's, says Doc.

Ah well, a remote shot at best..back to being normal again.
 
Sorry about the re-confirmed diagnosis. I was hoping a different outcome but well, we are here for you on this journey regardless.

Sorry Bad...I was really hoping the outcome would be better too. Must have been a roller-coaster week for you, going through this. I hope you don't let it get to ya!
 
Thanks....
Just glad it's resolved.
