Decision to operate should be tailored to each patient. Dr James Reynolds was 87 with Parkinson’s disease and other comorbidities, but surgery was the right decision for him. Importance of patient stories at #AAAConf

We are so pleased to have patient Dr Jim Reynolds on the platform with @drKathrynMcC hearing about #EmLap and functional outcomes. #AAAconf

On World Parkinson's day, I would encourage you to watch and share this video. We all work in the NHS with Parkinson's disease.

This past year people with #Parkinsons have faced isolation right when they most needed support.

But there’s lot's of support out there. People who want to help, or to be heard, just like you.

Tune in at 11am on 11 April 👉🏻 https://t.co/7FSH6ONOBi

On this #EasterSunday morning as I reflect on 5 yrs from a #parkinsons diagnosis at 41, I am reminded of this 20min talk I gave 2 years ago and the strength I draw from it.

I've just posted a video on YouTube channel Dr with PD discussing sleep problems. #Parkinsons #sleep #insomnia #YOPD https://t.co/2cqu46M6kq

A must watch.

[Parkinson's UK @ParkinsonsUK]

Parkinson’s devastates lives and there’s no cure. Yet.

But Parkinson's can’t hold us back. Powered by people like you. Putting our money where our mouth is. Funding pioneering research to find a cure.

Together, we’re Parkinson’s UK.

If you work in the #NHS could you help this weekend to raise awareness of #Parkinsons. Retweet

[Jonny Acheson @jonny_acheson]

According to this study the average time stayed in work after a #parkinsons diagnosis was 4.22 yrs. Fatigue, mobility, difficulty with manual tasks, speech impairment and depression contributed. With a supportive + adjusted work environment I am at 4.33 yrs, long may it continue.

Editorial @Age_and_Ageing

-Guidelines should include #delirium as a presenting feature
-Screening should be a standard of care
-Non-pharm approaches need to be implemented as early and often as possible

A GP with an average list size of about 1500 will see only one new Parkinson's case every 3.3 years which makes it difficult to develop and maintain expertise (SIGN guideline) #Parkinsons
