  • what about Magnetic gait caused by frontal lobe lesion

  • it goes more with festinates gait of parkinsonisim..it woud be supported by finding rigidity of the limbs plus tremor.nph more presnt with gait apraxia and march apetits pas the limb exam would b normal

  • Parkinsons most likely. Shuffling gait, slow movement, rigidity, leaning slightly forward and expressionless face. Pill rolling of fingers would have been a dead give away.

  • parkinsons definitely tops the list, give a trial dose of L-dopa (of course depending on pt. ALT AST levels and relavent hepatic Hx)with some entacapone, this is definitely the cheapest wapy to do it.

    If that doesn't work go onto a spinal tap with a pressure reading.

    But the main reason for parkinsons is there is no wide ataxic gait. NPH is much more rare.

  • Definitely, Parkinson disease is the first differential, but the gait is a bit suspicious and with a failure of ignition.

  • I vote for Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.. Look at the magnetic gait.

  • Dear Sir/Madam, After working hard for over 25 years and built a decent life for my self and my family, because of and due to the last 10 years of persistent epileptic seizures, I lost my wife, my home, my job, my car, my driving license and eveything I ever saved to become destitute homeless.

     I've been told by Stanford University, I need brain surgery to cure my seizures but I don't have health insurance. Can you please help me stop my seizures. Thank you, Regards

  • I vote for Parkinson, the patient is old and may have some added arthritis of course. She is about to sit down and play POKER, je,je,je!!!

  • Absence of arm swing, blank facial expression, no blinking, shuffling gait = PARKINSON's

    Definately NOT ALS, no if ands or buts

  • Absence of an arm swing, blank facial expression, no blinking, shuffling gait = PARKINSON'S

    This is definately NOT ALS
