How to stay fit while suffering from parkinson?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise is critical: Note that you take several medications. These may help, but you need to maintain fitness, including flexibility, strength, and stamina. Many physical therapists use exercise programs to stabiiize and improve pts with parkinson's, and lack of exercise can disable pts rapidly. Your neurologist should be able to guide you toward a good rehab specialist.
