Apokyn Injectable -about To Start On It. Anyone Use This Drug?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

My sister is about to start Apokyn which is a rescue drug that is injected( like diabetes’ injectable with small thin needle that doesn’t hurt). It supposed to kick in within 10-20 minutes and last about an hour while other carbidopa-levodopa kicks in ( takes about an hour for that). Anyone have experience with this drug?

Can Parkinson's Be Fatal?
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

I get tired of hearing people say that you don't die from Parkinson's. Instead you die from losing your balance and falling. You die from choking because you no longer can swallow. You die from sepsis or multiple system failure.

Following that logic can you say that someone didn't die from COVID? Instead they died from sepsis, pneumonia or many other related illnesses?

From my point of view, I recognize that many people with Parkinson's can live many years after their diagnosis. Albeit with… read more
