I have that style of walker and it’s the best. Mine also has a clicker and a led light that shines on the floor which helps me walk
I have the other type too that didn’t have brakes on without squeezing the handles.
I fell at least 5-6 times.
I can’t believe anyone would sell a Walker that allows movement when it’s stationary.

Oh hell no !!! I don’t like the follow the leader approach to getting the shots.
I’ve never had any shots or boosters.
I’ve had Covid and I believe like in the old days if you get and live thru it then your natural immune system will kick in.
My immune system still works !!!

I also have a problem with my speech, my wife calls it mush-mouth.
I’ve lost all the sound output in my speech too as in my head it seem like I’m yelling and in reality I’m whispering. Nothing wrong with my lungs but I run out of air when I’m talking and that also screws up my speech.

Marie
one of our rescued dogs is a beagle and she’ll be 19 yrs old in October. She’s only barked 3 times in the 8 years we’ve had her. She love the rain and snow.
yes Arizona does get snow each winter as I live in Prescott and it’s 5484ft high where my house is.

A-Typical PD is what I have.
Thankfully my wife has arranged the house to make it the easiest it can be for me.
i constantly freeze up and fall just about everyday yet I’ve been lucky as I haven’t broken anything except a cup.
I’ve gotten severely worse since the beginning of 2022
I was a strong, energetic, active individual until PD struck.

Tim Brindley replied to the topic Are you able to sleep through the night? in the forum Parkinson's Disease Symptoms 2 weeks, 2 days ago
NO !!!
I rarely sleep over 2.5 hrs straight a night before the pain wakes me up.
Usually I drink a cup of hot tea and I go back and lay down and get between 1.5 and 2 hrs before I wake back up.
This is the normal sleep I get each night since 2016 when PD reared it’s ugly head.
