My mother has it. Quite severe. She had the DBS surgery done, but it was not as effective as we had hoped (also, **** St. Luke's forever). She is in her early 70s and has had this for about 30 years (early-onset). When it began it progressed slowly, but over the last 5 years it had more than made up for that slow build. Now it has started to rob her of memories and cognitive abilities. It is honestly one of the worst fates that can befall a human. Your neighbor stopped shaking as much because it reaches a point where the body becomes fully rigid. They can't move without assistance, take care of themselves, and usually aren't able to speak, chew, or swallow by the end.
The shit dick that thinks Fox was exaggerating it in the past is clearly clueless to the disease and can't be bothered to look it up. I believe Fox has a levodopa pump installed which is similar to the insulin pumps people are more familiar with. It will keep him medicated and regulated. I am making an assumption here but I imagine when he is in public or on camera he ups is the dosage for that. |
