My husband uses a devise called The Breather to exercise his throat muscles. Really very effective.

My husband has been using Inbrija for months. We have found that you can predict off periods ( just keep a diary). Then take the Inbrija about 30 minutes before. It is a gap medicine – bridge the gap between regular meds. In my husband’s case he takes the Inbriha about an hour before his next dose of Rytary. So three times per day – however you can take it 5x per day. Helps with walking, ba ok an CD email, gait.

So my darling hubby (PD 10 yrs) took a hard fall in The kitchen where he had been making turkey soup from the carcass remains from early Thanksgiving Potluck at church. I rushed in from the office, see him on floor in unnatural position. On high alert I say “Honey can you get up? “ He tried to push up on hands, as head left the floor a pool of blood grew under his head. He lowered himself back down and basically passed out. As I reach for my cell phone to call 911 I hear a voice saying “Hello, Hello”. Not from my cell – no other phone nearby. Voice becomes insistent- “is anybody there?” it says. Finally I figure out that the voice is coming from my husbands very limp left hand. So I say to his hand “Hello???”. The voice says “ This is EMT, Is there an emergency??”. “ Yes !!!” I say to his watch! Hmmmm… his smart watch had detected a hard fall, had tried by vibration and noise to wake him up and get response – receiving neither the sweet smart watch had called 911! They even knew our address as we had registered earlier. They were there in 3 minutes – off to ER We went. Thank You Smart Watch!!! BTW – I had his current meds list in my hand. Not a perfect day – but preparations paid off.
