Short Bio

My sister has PD as did my maternal uncle and two aunts.  I had breast cancer in 2011, and also have  had several symptoms of PD but was passed off as caused from damage from the chemo and Letrozol meds I am still taking.  However lately the symptoms are getting worse.  Such as the shaking.  I have a lot of internal shaking,  as well as my right hand.   I have been getting short of breath for several years,  heart doctor can’t find anything wrong.  I have spells of choking and difficulty swallowing.  ENT doctor says nothing he can do.  I’ve been loosing my balance a lot lately.   And finally I have been having brain fog.  I drove to Starbucks and thought it was burger king then drove over the curb and got stuck.  With covid having a hard time getting doctor to see me.
