I was 39 when I first noticed a tremor and 47 when I began sinemet and requip. At 57 now, I still function but it is a matter of constant monitoring and adjustment.
It sounds as though Dr. Wahls has it together.
"I had accepted that I was never going to walk again. I had accepted that there was no recovery—that the best I could hope for was to hold steady,” Wahls says. “Even when I was getting better, I didn’t let myself believe it would continue. It took six months of steady recovery to begin to think that maybe in a few years I might be close to normal.”

Am about to tackle the mitochondria issue by following Terry Wahls diet - google her, although doubt I can follow it strictly.
Thanks everyone for your advice...
