My husband has had Parkinson's for 24 years.  Never a sign of tremor, but
lots of dyskinesia and currently freezing a lot, loss of cognitive ability
and bad hallucinations.  Also, he dozes a lot.  Incontinence, too.
He really did quite well for the first 20 years, and disease progressed at a
very slow rate.  He was able to work for the first 12 years, then was forced
to retire since he was a dentist and his motor functions were too badly
impaired.
That's my story.
His neurologist has recently suggested Clozaril for the hallucinations, which
does not thrill me.
Hope I haven't said too much in my first message!   All comments, prayers and
support appreciated!
