I have diagnosed that young on set Parkinson disease in 2014. It took a long time because No  name no medication for 3 years. I changed several   clinic/specialists in Southern AZ. Last clinical person told me it was A pinched nerve, could not cure and nothing he can help. I was so shocked, but my Yoga teacher told it can manage and do not give up.  My family and friends noticed my right foot dragging. At grocery shop a person saw my difficult walking, she offered help.

  I realized I need to find what was going on.  When I flew to Japan in 2014, I was admitted to a large hospital for 1 month for re-examined me. Tests that diagnose illness are different in the United States. In Japan, we list possible types of illnesses and tested from my back, spine, chest, Xray, CT, Ultra sounds tests etc. Results came negatives, and doctors eliminate illnesses not my symptoms. They told me possible my brain. After Da T Scan & PET Finally at 3 large hospitals with 7 doctors diagnosed me two possibility, Corticobasal degeneration or Parkinson. I started taking a medication since then it works well 

This is progressive disease and cannot cure currently. However as my yoga teacher told it can be manageable. Japanese Dr showed me there are many Parkinson medications available. It is more effective medication and treatment near future. Under Dr Salins’ care at Barrow and follows up Japanese neurology,  my symptoms can do improbable and manageable. 

I am very happy to meet trust worth medical Dr and clinical staffs here in Phoenix AZ.  

 Thus I do not give up and am still looking for cure and more effective medicine. I will join any possible Parkinson research and support group. My spouse was ALS and gone from me 2 years ago. ALS also is brain illness, and I hope a finding a cure for all patients.  In Japan, there are a new IPS cell research successful announcement

I also found the great news "Using iPS cells discovered by Professor Shinya Yamanaka of Kyoto University for the first time in the world, Japanese people will start developing treatments for intractable diseases in the United States. Sumitomo Dainippon Pharma will start a clinical trial (clinical trial) to provide regenerative medicine to patients with Parkinson's disease in the United States in 2022. There is no effective treatment for Parkinson's disease, and there is only symptomatic treatment that slowly suppresses the progression of symptoms. I would like to develop a treatment method that actually improves symptoms with iPS cells."(Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Mar 2021)
