My husband was diagnosed of Parkinsons disease 2 years ago, when he was 59. He had a stooped posture, tremors, right arm does not move and also a pulsating feeling in his body. He was placed on Senemet for 8 months and then Siferol was introduced and replaced the Senemet, during this time span he was also diagnosed with dementia. He started having hallucinations, lost touch with. Suspecting it was the medication I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) him on PD natural herbal formula we ordered from TREE OF LIFE HEALTH CLINIC, his symptoms totally declined over a 3 weeks use of the TREE OF LIFE HEALTH Parkinson's disease natural herbal formula. He is now almost 61 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed! (w w w. treeoflifeherbalclinic .com)/
Many thanks to Annmarie for sharing her story and letting people know about Early onset Parkinson’s Ireland. This article has resonated with so many people. See message below received from Annmarie.
Hello everyone
My name is Annmarie O'Connor. I am the fashion editor for the Irish Examiner and a fellow member of EOPD. I was diagnosed with early onset Parkinson's disease eight months ago and shared my story with the newspaper last Saturday. As we well know, everyone's experience of Parkinson's is different. I'm hoping that mine might resonate with others and provide some support on the road ahead.
For those of you who might have a copy of the Aug 27th paper, the feature ran in Weekend magazine and is also available to read online, albeit by subscription only.
Have a lovely week.
Annmarie
