  • A Must Read G7uide for Parkinsons Patients

    It is so informative. Everything from 'Do you have the right diagnosis?' to medications which may be considered, and which one the neurologists think is best for the condition. Some about exercise and diet. I shared it with my BIG physical therapist. The book has ample margins so you can write comments and questions.
