Overwhelmed!
My sweet older brother (57) arrived from TN to MI yesterday. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's 3 years ago, although he had tremors years before that and is on SS disability. S I do know that this is a progressive situation. He drove alone and arrived yesterday. He asked me to look at his back and see if there was anything externally that might explain his remark that it was painful. Something that looked like a chigger bite was visible. Today, it is apparent that the man has shingles. I know (now) that he must have an antiviral injection within 72 hours. I so wonder what to do as I am only just today learning about PD and now this unfortunate complication. Any suggestions, PLEASE???
