It's good to know there is a discussion group like this to turn to.
I have a relative who's father was recently diagnosed with PD.
He has been an alcoholic for many years and is in his mid 50's.
My relative does not have access to e-mail and needed a few questions
answered:
1) Does PD have a history of genetic inheritance? If so, does it repeat or
skip generations?
2) Does alcohol consumption increase chances for PD?
3) What are the various treatments for PD?
I thank you in advance for the time you spend reading and/or replying to
this message.
