  1. parkinson's

    Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement control. The condition results from a loss of nerve cells in a specific part of the brain that produce dopamine, a chemical that transmits signals to coordinate movements. Symptoms often include tremors, stiffness, balance problems, sleep issues, and cognitive changes. The disease is typically seen in people over 60 years old, though early-onset forms can occur. While there is currently no cure for Parkinson's, various treatments can help manage symptoms.

My life has been negatively altered as a result of my vaccine. Will I get better? Will I develop Parkinson’s or MS or ALS or another neuro-degenerative disease? I don't know, and my doctors can’t tell me if they know. So what do I want? I want our neurological injuries to be recognized and acknowledged by the CDC and the FDA.

    I think that medical school curriculum does need to update to include neurodegenerative diseases in their 'giving bad news' training -- Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, for example, we do need to educate all providers to be aware that hesitance to give the diagnosis reduces the ability of the patient and family to make some choices and planning that is essential for emotional and financial well-being.

  5. Dorreen Nicholas:
