Our neurologist, today, only mentioned that there is a variety of Parkinson diseases. When it comes to progression, according to my understanding, he said the rigidity type would progress quicker. Furthermore, he said that rigidity responds better to PD medication on the market today. I am certain there is a complex reason for the difference behind. It caught my attention, while they were taking a history of the disease, they asked if my husband was exposed to toxic fumes. Perhaps, they may ask this every person; I do not know. My husband does have the simple form of the disease, shaking, which cannot be overcome very well with the medication, especially, to pre selected medication that one may be able to drive. Perhaps, my answer is begging a further question.
