Causes of Parkinson's Disease (Health Short)

[CraveTehRandomness]

My grandmother had Parkinson's before she passed and my father currently has it now. I've researched the disease quite a bit as has my father. He personally went through a surgery where they inserted a needle into his brain and wires connecting it to the motor function section of the brain. All the wires are connected to a battery pack inside of his chest that control currents of electricity which help lower the tremors very well.Less med and more body control. There are ways to help but no cure

not trying to act like a Dr. but i've learned that the decreased dopoamine is actually happening in the corpus striatum portion of the basal ganglia

Hello guys,

Just an FYI....I am a Lyme disease patient . Lyme disease is known as :

" The Great Imitator" as it can mimic almost any disease that exists. Many Lyme patients I have spoken to over the years have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease when they actually had Lyme disease. Will email a Lyme disease brochure to anyone interested.

You're exposed to toxins every time you breath, open a can of soup or buy a vegetable that was grown with the use of pesticides. If you've drank out of a plastic bottle or painted your home, you've been exposed to toxins. If there has ever been a carpet in your home you've been exposed to toxins. you cannot be alive on earth and not be exposed to toxins. So yes...you're grandmother has been exposed to toxins.

I've got a few symptoms but I'm not sure if I've got the disease :(

To Gmod Striker, im not a dr. just a PTA grad but i've learned that Wilson's disease mimics PD . Wilson's causes a defict in the metabolism of copper. The accumulation of copper within erythrocites (Red blood cells), liver , and kidneys produces degenerative changes (tremor, choreoathetoid movements, dysarthria, and progressive rigidity), i don't know what symptoms you have but you should ask your Dr. about Wilsons if you display some of these. hope this helps

Cause:

Oxidative stress due to free radicals, alfa-synuclein aggregation; proteosomal dysfunction in Substantia Nigra pars compacta causing Parkinson's disease in Dopaminergic neurons in the Basal Ganglia. - So if your diet lacks anti-oxidants then you run the risk of deficit of Dopamin in the striatum.

my Grandma never had exposure to toxin, this professer said he is a professer of this and he does not know, what teacher is that, that does not know.

[SumthingStupid123]

He said genetics too

[dadmonson]

My dad never had exposure to toxins either.

Please tell me what if a parkinson's disease patient never takes medications?

I am not a doctor and I am not trying to raise false hopes.....but LYME DISEASE is known as the "GREAT IMITATOR." It can imitate many different diseases. ALS,MS,ANOREXIA NERVOSA,and PARKINSON'S to just name a few. Will email a LYME BROCHURE to anyone interested.
