Interested to know how does parkinson disease affect daily living?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: This may vary depending on the severity of the parkinson's disease and also the response to medications.There are some who may have a minor tremor that is well controlled by medications.There are some that may have severe on/off problems that are debilitating and affect daily living.There are new surgical techniques(deep brain stimulation) that have a lot of promise in alleviating symptoms.
