    Yes, I have suspected all along that Roundup was the cause of my PD. There is no history of PD in my family.

I’m sure no one worked on their voice more than Linda Ronstadt, yet she still ended up losing the ability to sing. PD is unique for everyone, though, and her problem may not be ours. I will say that the louder and more consistent I practice singing, the…[Read more]

      Hey Bob- I’d be interested to learn more about this. I’ve heard before that singing can slow the process of vocal loss. And that it can act like a natural speech therapist. I’m really glad to hear that you’ve noticed a difference in your own voice. And I hope that you DO sing every day!! What kind of music do you like to sing?

    Bob Glisson replied to the topic Linda Ronstadt and PD affecting her voice in the forum Parkinson's Disease Symptoms 3 years, 2 months ago

    My voice is still reasonably good, but my guitar playing has been compromised, primarily due to my shaking picking hand. I’m still performing at small gigs occasionally, but I’m certainly not what I once was…
