Hi everyone, I am a new subscriber, and am here on behalf of my wife, now 61, and diagnosed about a year ago. She has no tremors but is fast losing fine motor control..ability to balance, and therefore walk, and speech is becoming mechanical. At times not understandable. All this resulted, say the neurologists, from contracting ENCEPHALITIS when young, leaving the brain scarred. We would like to contact anyone relating to this "encephalitic" Parkinsons. Graham Lacey.
