Conductive Education is the way forward, hopefully you will be able to find a provider close to you. CE helps you overcome all sorts of problems parkinson’s throws at you. You learn techniques to help you with everyday tasks from getting out of bed, walking, getting up out of a chair, handwriting and I could carry on listing for hours. Enquire about it without delay, you will not regret it.
50 year old diagnosed 15 years ago still going strong with the help of CE, positive thinking and a few pills.
I had not heard of Conductive Education but has googled this & on behalf of my partner who is the sufferer I am curious about this. Do you attend weekly?.
My partner has had PD 3/4 yrs, hes 70 now. May not be so relevant to you due to age difference. He goes to the gym twice weekly, mainly does weight training. We do Pilates which has been beneficial we believe. We try to walk often. Hes started to go to a class that has a PD warrior trained physio. He takes seven seas on daily basis. He is on Selegeline 1 daily and 7 sinimet daily.
I havnt joined any classes as im frightened i will fall over. I havnt fallen yet but sometimes get the sensation I might. Perhaps i should try and work through it, as I do with my panic attacks.
