  • We are discussing information regarding the early symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, such as the usual non-motor and motor symptoms that manifest in the initial stages of the illness. If you are apprehensive about the possibility of having Parkinson's Disease, watch this video.
    Recognizing Parkinson's disease symptoms is crucial for several reasons:
    1. Early Intervention: Early detection allows for prompt medical intervention and management of the disease. While there is currently no cure for Parkinson's disease, early treatment can help alleviate symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life.
    2. Disease Progression Management: Understanding and recognizing the symptoms enables healthcare professionals to monitor the progression of the disease. This information is vital for adjusting treatment plans and providing appropriate care as the condition evolves.
    3. Medication and Therapy Planning: Identifying Parkinson's disease early allows for the timely initiation of medications and therapeutic interventions. Medications, physical therapy, and other treatments can help manage symptoms and enhance the patient's functional abilities.
    4. Quality of Life Improvement: Early recognition and treatment can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with Parkinson's disease. Managing symptoms effectively can help maintain mobility, reduce disability, and enhance overall well-being.
    5. Informed Decision-Making: Patients and their families can make more informed decisions about lifestyle changes, support systems, and long-term care when the disease is diagnosed early. This includes decisions about work, daily activities, and financial planning.
    6. Clinical Research and Trials: Early diagnosis allows individuals with Parkinson's disease to participate in clinical trials and research studies. This participation is essential for advancing our understanding of the disease and developing new treatments and interventions.
    7. Educational and Support Resources: Recognizing symptoms early enables patients and their families to access educational resources such as this channel and support networks.
    8. Understanding the disease and connecting with others facing similar challenges can be beneficial in coping with the emotional and practical aspects of living with Parkinson's disease.
    9. Addressing Non-Motor Symptoms: In addition to motor symptoms like tremors and stiffness, Parkinson's disease can also cause non-motor symptoms such as depression, sleep disturbances, and cognitive changes.
    In summary, early recognition of Parkinson's disease symptoms is critical for timely intervention, effective management, and improved outcomes for individuals living with the disease. It enables healthcare professionals, patients, and their families to work together to create a comprehensive care plan tailored to the specific needs of the individual.

    One day after menopause
    I had reached to grab a plate my whole arm was in tremor
    Lifted other arm and same happened , I sat down closed my eyes had wave lines ( they happen quite often now) but these were different
    I have had a resting tremor for 10 years with lots of odd symptoms.
    Examples
    Like you said severe anxiety out of nowhere panic
    Sleeping I ended up feeling paralyzed finally swung arm to call 911
    My legs were so heavy quick sand
    Arms heavy
    Right shoulder pain for 15 years.
    Severe pain n weakness both arms legs
    Incontinence
    Back n forth with constipation
    I wear diaper can’t hold urine in
    Eyes heavy pain when moving them
    I get a jolting feeling in head like a quick pulse felt in body
    Tremors worse.
    Gait has been bad since menopause
    FM CFS diagnosed after daughter
    Complete placenta previa
    With a near bleed out ( platlettes used rare blood not on hand )
    I have a mask like face staring spells
    DX with EDS they say Hypermobile
    Hyperreflexia horners syndrome
    RLS biopsied for neuropathy ( no high or low sugar)
    My neck has been so bad
    Pain n arm right to fingers
    With numb tingling feet n legs as well
    Dystonia

    I am 48 and had a datscan last year that reveled abnormalities.
    I was having issues with stiffness (particularly on my right side) at work. I was a painter and decorator so I would often get a little pain due to the nature of the work and I also have a bit of arthritis in my spine. Just before lockdown for covid I had a melanoma removed from my leg.
    About two months after the melanoma removal i went back to the doc complaining of crazy levels of stress. The doc naturally put this down to the cancer and gave me some duloxetine tables.
    I said I had been experiencing almost hysterical levels of stress at work for the last couple of years and would regularly have meltdowns where even small problems would seem like mountains to climb. I started on the duloxetine and it felt great for the first 2 or 3 weeks, at about the 4 week mark I felt like I'd fallen off a cliff. I was shaking uncontrollably, I was having problems walking and initiating movement as it felt like my leg was stuck.
    I did a little research and thought perhaps I had Parkinson's and the tables had just exasperated some mirror conditions.
    I stopped the duloxetine tables and it took months to return to a somewhat normal state prior to the tables. I convinced the doctor to send me to a neurologist and he said on examination I had a bit of mild dystonia, little right arm swing, and some mild cogwheeling. Eventually I had the datscan and he said it looks like very early stage Parkinson's.
    My melanoma returned with a vengeance at the beginning of this year and i received a full right leg lymph node removal, stage 3c. I'm on target therapy now for the cancer and I have since greatly improved my diet. The Parkinson's symptom's have improved greatly with the change in diet but they do come and go like the changing of the wind.
    Some times I still wonder if I even have Parkinson's because I feel no different and then other days I shake a little, or I get that ratchet like feeling thought my movement, partially in my left arm. Or the other big effect is extreme fatigue. The symptom's can change thought-out the day but i do get overall weeks that are bad and over all weeks that are good.
    I guess what I'm questioning is if this coming and going of symptom's is normal in the early days of Parkinson's. Thank you John

      I agree with you. You need to reevaluate your diagnosis. Things change, and what seems to be "parkinson disease" it is something else. As a matter of fact, DAT Scan can be false positive. There are some medications that might affect the visual interpretation of the test. also inclination of the head might affect the visual interpretation is some cases. Nuclear medicine fellowship trained radiologist should be reading those tests as well. Try to get a second opinion from a movements disorder fellowship trained neurologist with at least 5 years of experience after training.

      I was not on any medications at the time of the scan (or had been on any meds for about 6 month prior.)
      Radiographer to neurologist in correspondence after findings. Datscan reported to show mild to moderate reduction in uptake within the right corpus striatum and left putamen. And mild elevation in background activity. Appearances are suggestive of dopaminergic degeneration.
      I believe my neurologist has been at the hospital for many years dealing with Parkinson's and other movement disorders but yes it would be interesting to get a second opinion.

    I have tremor in my left thumb & after 6 months or so, I noticed it's in thumb & forefinger. Happens usually while I'm resting, watching TV. I also have just recently started getting what may be Seborrheic dermatitis. I have a doctor appointment in about a week. The scalp condition is brand new & I also (not sure if it's related) started getting sores inside my nose which leaked clear liquid then they go away but return & now only seem to bleed, make that part of the nose feel stiff & very sore. Also, extreme fatigue. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia over 10 years ago but the fatigue is much worse lately. Also, having more frequent urgency to urinate without full bladder & trouble with small leaks especially when sneezing. I'm 53 yrs old. Does this sound like early signs of PD?

    • @luisezayasmdpt4397
      @luisezayasmdpt4397  7 месяцев назад +4

      Yes. Unilateral resting tremor of the finger is very characteristic of Parkinson's disease. Resting tremors are sometimes difficult to evaluate. You need to make sure that you are really resting. One way is to observe you while walking or standing to see if you have the same tremor or lying down supine with the arm completely resting. You need to be seen by a neurologist, preferably with a fellowship training in movement disorders, to confirm the findings.

    Good gosh my mom has every one of these except pain in shoulder (at least not that she’s told me). I’m obviously here trying to figure out what’s going on with her because I can’t get her to a doctor because she refuses to believe something is wrong. Her tremor is severe in her left hand. And she does this weird one with her right. Almost on purpose. But I don’t think she can help it. It starts out as a mild shake of her forearm, then it goes to a violent shake and lasts about 30 seconds. She can stop it if she puts her hand under her leg or grabs it with her other hand. But her legs and feet do a very rapid, tremor. And she doesn’t even know. I asked her about the one on the right arm and she said that it’s just something she started doing and to leave her alone (she’s very very cranky to me). I’m just trying to help her but gosh she’s so mean sometimes. And her constipation is Sooooooo bad that I have to intervene. She walks hunched over with her walker, shuffles, all the symptoms.
    Does Parkinson’s cause irritability? Does it also cause hallucinations? Or hearing things? She is hearing impaired. We’re trying to get aids for her but it takes a while.
    I’m not sure if she has Parkinson’s, I’m not sure if she has some form of Dementia, I’m not sure if she has both. But I’m seeking answers so I know how hard I need to push her to go to the doctor. But you see, the doctors do these stupid tests that don’t show anything. Like for dementia. They ask all the memory questions and that’s it. She passes that every single time. I know there has to be more to that testing. That can’t be all there is. She has a lot of memory issues. Doctor just doesn’t see it like I do. Oh goodness. This is soo frustrating.

    Hello. I'm not sure if you are going to see this, hoping to get a reply. I've been experiencing widespread twitching and feels shaky on my legs (occurs at rest). I'm not sure if I twitch or tremor on hands/fingers but I experience it more when using my phone. I don't have other symptoms for now aside from feeling shaky on leg and arm after feeling a tightening or heavy sensation lasting for few seconds. My muscles aren't rigid. I can still move and do tasks without issues. Is this "POSSIBLY" enough to get diagnosed with PD if I only have these symptoms? I'm thinking that the other symptoms might appear later in life.

    • @luisezayasmdpt4397
      @luisezayasmdpt4397  3 месяца назад

      Everybody has a physiologic tremor, which can be exacerbated by anxiety, medications, lack of good sleep, caffeine, or any stimulant. It is also normal to have occasional muscle twitching, especially when we are fatigued. If you are concerned, see a neuromuscular or a movement disorder doctor to personally evaluate you. This will give you peace of mind.

I do have stiffness in my legs when I walk. Some mornings I wake up with stiff fingers and hands, so hoping this is not a symptom. I don't have tremors. Since I only have 3 or 4 of the symptoms, I'm hoping I don't have. PD.

    So someone in my family was diagnosed with Parkinson's and dementia years ago and one question I've always wondered is have they ever looked into chemical or environmental exposure being the root cause? I remember hearing when it comes to certain illnesses certain diets are life-changing and even reversing of certain conditions.. but this gentleman was in his 70s and lived by a paper mill so you can just imagine, also lived maybe a block away from a quarry pit.... and when he was younger he worked in Mills where I'm sure Asbestos and other hazardous chemicals were likely around.. I guess my point is other than paraquat or commercials you hear about that stuff, do you think diet has something to do with it? With all the herbicides and pesticides and things they do to fruits and vegetables unless you buy organic and even then it's still questionable, do you think a lot of that might have anything to do with it? I'm just curious about your opinion on the topic. Thanks in advance!

    • @luisezayasmdpt4397
      @luisezayasmdpt4397  26 дней назад

      Yes, the cause of Parkinson's disease is believed to be a combination of environmental factors and genetic predisposition. I make an effort to avoid exposure to toxins such as pesticides, herbicides, and growth-enhancing chemicals used in animal farming, as these factors are likely contributing to the development of this disease. However, Parkinson's disease is complex and may actually encompass multiple diseases. Despite our limited understanding, we still refer to it as Parkinson's disease due to a lack of a more precise classification. Neurology has many unknowns, and this is why medical students do not like it. We have fewer medical students interested in neurology.
      Adopting an organic diet is a key aspect of my lifestyle. I find it beneficial to avoid eating out and instead focus on preparing my meals at home. This dietary choice has been instrumental in maintaining my health and well-being.

      Resting tremors may occur intermittently. Rigidity can worsen when you are ill or experiencing any type of stress, whether physical or emotional. In some cases, symptoms of Parkinsonism may become more apparent when you are hospitalized and unwell, as your brain is unable to compensate effectively. Some non-motor symptoms also fluctuate over time.

      If the left thumb ~4 hz tremor occurs during resting ( muscles are completely relax) or when standing or walking, then it is a Parkinsonian tremor. If this is the only symptom, then no need treatment since it is not affecting your function. Most important right now if to follow a good exercise program, at least moderate intensity, better high intensity. This is the only thing you can have control besides what you eat. Try to follow MIND diet.

    If I position my hand in supination, it tremors. If I hold my phone in my left hand, it tremors. If I lay on my stomach and lean into my left elbow, my hand tremors or at least feels like it’s going to tremor.
    If I stand and let my arm/hand dangle (no weight bearing and no isometric contractions), it doesn’t shake. It almost feels like I have a fight or flight sensation in my entire left arm.

      If the tremor occurs only during specific positions (positional tremor), it is most likely to be a dystonic tremor and not a Parkinsonian tremor. You need to be seen by a movement disorder doc, the diagnosis is very easy when correctly evaluated. The treatment for dystonic tremor is different.

      Most likely is dystonia-->dystonic tremors (position-specific jerky tremor). Differential diagnosis is essential tremor. It is very easy to differentiate clinically. I have a video about how to differentiate ET from PD tremor. @@iMaGiNaTiOnWpAsSiOn

      ​@@luisezayasmdpt4397The problem with relying on Resting tremors as the determining factor is, there has been research that found in persons with early onset Parkinson's up to about 26% will present with intention tremors first. Developing resting tremors later in the disease progression. This can happen in normal age related Parkinson's as well (~ 60 - 65 years of age) but is seen in a smaller number in this group. So it's important to find a movement disorder doctor that is very thorough & and doesn't rely on the old generalities for diagnosis, like developing resting tremor first & intention tremor later in disease progression. Sometimes it's the opposite. It all depends on which sub structure is damaged first, or damaged more. It's why Parkinson's presentation is unique to each person. Unfortunately we (doctors & scientists) don't truely know what symptoms will be caused by damage to, or more severe damage will correlate to which symptoms. We know some generalities, but there is still a lot to learn!

    I have a sleeping problem, tension and anxiety disorder... Also some types of doubts.. I am 41 year old female... Is it symptoms of pd? I have no walking problems, shivering etc.... Sir, kindly reply...

      Not necessarily. You need to have bradykinesia to diagnose PD. Sleeping issues and anxiety are very common problems in the general population. Mild anxiety and sleeping problems are normal in life; we are humans. A little anxiety is good for performing well in life. The problem is when it is severe and affects your function.

      @mlhamiltonanderson5940 2 месяца назад

      Are you anxious? Pinched nerve? Any head/neck injuries?Too much coffee? Too many mushroom supplements? Repetitive Strain injury? Torn tendon in elbow? These can all cause non-essential tremor in the fingers. The treatment for non-essential tremor is propranolol 20mg twice daily and 2.5mg prednisolone incase there is inflammation pressing on a nerve. I would still have yourself checked out. You are very young. You want to rule out the more serious conditions like MS, etc. Medical professional in Australia.

      Yes. It can be many things. However, try to see a movement disorder specialist. Nothing better than seeing an expert. Sometimes, you need 2 or 3 expert opinions. www.movementdisorders.org/MDS/Resources/Patient-Resources/Movement-Disorders-Specialist-Directory-Listing.htm

      Dyskinesias (abnormal movements) are involuntary movements that occur after years of taking levodopa in the setting of Parkinson's disease. You can see dyskinesia in other conditions similar to Parkinson's disease, such as MSA, but they are different and less common. Tardive dyskinesias (tardive syndromes) are a side effect of medications affecting dopamine receptors. We are seeing more tardive dyskinesias because of the increasing use of dopamine blockers to treat depression, even though we are using more atypical neuroleptics, which are less likely to cause tardive syndromes. I will post a video of tardive dyskinesia soon. This is a very important topic to discuss because if more common than what we think.
