Is a Parkinson’s Epidemic on the Horizon?
|
Q. We just found out that my mother was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. I don’t know much about Parkinson’s, except that it is a progressive neurological disease with no cure and that it affects movement. The doctor said that there has been more education and awareness efforts, since Parkinson’s has become more prevalent in the past few years. Why are more people getting
Parkinson’s lately? What do they think could be the cause and what are some resources for those who are newly diagnosed? Thanks for your help!
