Default Hi!

My name is John Edwards. I am 58 years old and last year was diagnosed with Parkinson's.
My main symptoms are tremors on my right side (hand and leg), balance problems, and loss of blocks of memory. I'm getting by but am constantly aware of my condition.
I love to sing in church, I sang a solos a few weeks ago, I know that next time I will set up a music stand and not try (and I mean try) to hold my music still. Quite a struggle.
Life goes on.
Have a Great and Godly day!

John

Hi, John!

Welcome to NeuroTalk! I'm glad you found us and I like your spirit.

Here's a link to the PD forum where there are many others who will offer you support and insights about your condition: http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=34

Feel free to jump in anywhere or post a new thread. We have lots of other topics of discussion and you are quite welcome to join us in any of them!


Since you are a man of faith, can I assume that you're not that yutz who runs around telling people what's in their minds??

Hi John, welcome to NT! I'm sure you'll find the Parkinson's forum to be just what you need. I wish you much comfort and useful info stemming from your time here.

(AMN... John Edwards is a physic who communicates with the dead, not a mind reader, lol. But belief in it is another story.)
