Sorry to hear about your son's diagnosis. Check out the www youngparkinsons.com and www.yopa.org . We have some younger Parkinson's people in our group, but your son may be the youngest. Take care and good luck.

We are in the process of getting an appointment with a movement disorder specialist for a second opinion and a definitive diagnosis. I am looking for as much information as I can about Parkinson's in a teenager, and came here for help. I am trying to learn as much as possible so that when we see the specialist, we will know what questions to ask, etc. Last night I purchased "When Parkinson's Strikes Early," which has been a wonderful help so far. Can anyone give me specific websites, newsletters, etc. that I can look for that would deal with Parkinson's in a teenager? Thanks so much in advance for any help anyone can give me. I am so glad to be on this list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn . ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
