    George Kapetanakis replied to the topic Have you undergone Deep Brain Stimulation? in the forum Living ​With​ ​Parkinson's Disease 1 year, 7 months ago

    I had my operation done about three years ago in a six-month span. I am off Sinemet and for the most part no other medication. I am always trying new supplements with no much success. Although I had a little luck lately.

    The latest being Bacillus Subtilis, which helped me with my constipation a lot and now I am trying Butyrex which seems to help…[Read more]

    George Kapetanakis replied to the topic Sinemet dosage in the forum Parkinson's Disease Medications 2 years, 6 months ago

    Hi guys.
    Before my DBS I was at one and a half pills three times a day. My life was miserable and I had Dystonia, Dyskinesia and a list of other ailments due to PD. In the beginning, Sinemet was really beneficial to my symptoms. In the end, my On-Time was much worse than My Off-Time. If that makes sense.
    After my DBS I was down to one pill three…[Read more]

    Yes, it is. There was an article about it on the Cure Parkinsons Fund. They are in England. It sounded very interesting. As for the Magnesium, I hope it’s not a placebo effect but it makes me feel better.

    George Kapetanakis replied to the topic Miro1 Protein Could Be a Potential Parkinson's Biomarker in the forum Parkinson’s Research News 2 years, 7 months ago

    Hi, Jean. What I take is Magnesium L-Threonate. One pill in the morning and one at night. Next week I will double that per their suggestion. I will keep you posted.
    By the way. Have you heard of Ambroxol?

    Great. I hope it works. Soon. There is so much on the research front that I am getting lost. By the way. I think magnesium does help.

    George Kapetanakis replied to the topic What is your favorite memory from this past summer? in the forum Living ​With​ ​Parkinson's Disease 2 years, 8 months ago

    Ya sou Jean. America is everywhere. In good ways and bad. Especially in a European country that has so many ties with its Greek communities in the States.
    Yes, I would love to move back but for the time being, I’ll be happy with longer vacations.
    Until then we can dream about those beautiful turquoise waters and watch some youtube, every now and…[Read more]

    George Kapetanakis replied to the topic What is your favorite memory from this past summer? in the forum Living ​With​ ​Parkinson's Disease 2 years, 8 months ago

    HI, jean. I think number one would be the “traditional” Mediterranean Diet and lifestyle. Another big attribute would be the size of the community. Small villages and islands do fare better. Even traditional greetings like hello or good buy are said with a simple “ya sou” which would translate to “your health.” So, Ya Sou, Jean.

    P.S You could…[Read more]

    More than that Jean. It’s a place where people live longer with less Parkinson’s.
