Amazing story. Thanks Vicky.

I honestly don't know what to think of this story. On one hand it is a testimonial on endurance and ability to handle everything life throws your way. On the other hand, it shows how debilitating and life changing PD can be.

How well I remember this lady. She went through quite an ordeal in getting diagnosed, then had DBS, only to find that she did not have PD-at all! It was a horrible experience for Tenacity and her husband. This is one reason why a test for confirming that one has PD is so important.

I hope Tenacity is doing well today. .

That story was about me. It has been a very long journey since that article was written. One thing for sure, my life has never been the same.

Thank you so much for sharing your amazing story. You have incredible strength.

I know so many here must be wondering the same thing as I am, which is mainly, what did you do about your "PD" symptoms? Did the doctors ever tell you what caused them? Did they just go away? Your experience makes me wonder how many PWP might be in the same position, that is, being treated for a "disease" they don't really have. If you have updated your story somewhere, please let us all know where that is, thank you:)
