Parkinson disease is a very terrible illness, my Dad suffered from it for 19 years until we finally got a help and a medicine from Dr Madida that truly works that helped treat, cure and reversed all his symptoms completely💯…My Dad is well again💫.

Dr Madida on KZfaq indeed really helped me a lot in reversing my Parkinson disease

awesome video!

Keep up the good work!

Thank you for supporting this noble cause! #UniteForParkinsons

Great work Dr. Rana!! We always need dedicated and selfless people like you spreading awareness.

Tanta instruccion fastidia. Pongan a alguien que baile bien y suavemente , pongan la musica y dejenlos gozar.

EPDA I know you are probably just someone working on the channel..But from what you've seen and experienced personally, what do you think about the Rumors of Hillary Clinton having Parkinsons Disease?

Sorry but I have Parkinson's to

so true it makes me not want to go out! hop they find a cure

Thank you for this!!! How is Terry doing in 2016?

Mr. Isaacs, I appreciate this interview. It was quite helpful. I agree, open discussion is crucial. So many people don't understand there is more to this disease than shaking and trembling. I hope all is well. I see this was posted about 5 years ago I am curious how you are doing today if you care to share. Peace

How courageous of this wonderful man to make this video! It is very helpful to people like me who are newly diagnosed.

What a wonderful clip to remember a wonderful day. So proud to have been there and part of this amazing event.....lets keep moving for Parkinson's!

Thank you for sharing this. My body has Parkinson's and I can relate. He is so BLESSED to have you to help him!

Walking the walk & talking the talk! Brilliant idea!

love this!

Amazing initiative - go EPDA!

my dad has parkingsons this video make a lot on sense to me some time the little thing in life open your eyes

What an amazing story. Wonderful

Just watched this Terry...very moving and interesting. Lovely to meet you again at the AGM yesterday. You are an inspiration to all..!!!!

An absolutely fascinating study on how health authorities, insurers etc., graph a patient's 'worth' mathematically, environmentally and logistically. The science of the value of a life....if only people could be pigeon-holed. If only we would 'behave'....if only we would stay 'on trend' and become 'reliably sick'. Fantastic study!

I've never seen anything like this before; it really tells a side of the story that you don't often hear.

but unfortunately for PD sufferers, not all dopaminergic neurons are affected - so giving L-dopa can over-dose those neurons that are not affected - ie. those that are involved in addictions or motivation.

Das ist fast deutsch. And in english: thats in a Language spoken that Sounds like german .in Swiss Dialekt...

Well done, Amazing interview, don't ever give in.

@christina sly for run when I feel rough and it works for me so I think you should join a gymn or take up dancing but work up a sweat get out of breath, I apologise if this sounds smug but I cannot think of any other way of putting it, please contact me direct if I can be of any help at all Terry

@christina sly Hi Christina I am sorry to hear that you are having such a bad time I do not have anything very exciting to say except keep fighting you can have a pretty good standard of life if you get your meds right and keep going the more you do the better you will be I know it is easy for me to say but I always go

i enjoyed your movie,I am still crying...I am 48 and have parkinson's,most days nowI have ahard time getting around anymore...I feel for you and with you...I am fighting every day for the smallest things and the knowledge that I will not win this fight, makes it all the harder. but I wish you and I and our families the best anyway. the alternative would be to give up, and that is not an alternative. Christina

What a heartfelt video. Thank you very much of your honesty & sharing with us, I learned something and I am glad I did. God Bless you, I think you are doing a GREAT job! Keep it up! :)

The video has been produced by Norges Parkinsonforbund, the EPDA's Norwegian member organisation. Unless they have the video already available in German, unfortunately it is unlikely the video would be translated as the costs are prohibitive. You can contact Norges Parkinsonforbund directly at [email protected]

As dopamine does not cross the blood-brain barrier, it cannot be used directly as a treatment for Parkinson's. However, Levodopa (L-dopa) which is a chemical cousin of dopamine, does gain access to the brain where it is converted to dopamine to replace the brain's dwindling supply. There are also dopamine agonists that have a structure very similar to dopamine. Because of this similarity, they are able to mimic the action of dopamine. More information can be found on MedInfo - EPDA website.

Why not give people with PD synthetic dopamine?

@viorelaismeralda - Sorry I could not post the actual link as KZfaq does not permit this. However if you go to the EPDA website epda.eu.com and search for genetic testing, you should find the link.

@viorelaismeralda - There is some information on Genetic Testing on the EPDA webpage. You should also try asking your national Parkinson's disease organisation or your family doctor to see if they have any answers for you or point you in the right direction. Best wishes.

my grandmother and my mother had parkinson very young and I would like to get some test to see if I am prone to develop it as well. Are there any such tests I can take?

One has to remember that dopamin isn't just responsible for the correct functioning of motion but is tied to other functions of the brain such as cognition and association. This means that when there aren't enough cells left in the substantia nigra to take on the dopamine from the medicine and therefore other parts of the brain get a surplus, thereby producing a wholr range of quite stark non-motor symptoms.

Thank you very much, this is truly fascinating
