Parkinsons And PSP

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
Irmo, SC

My wife has the worst case of this disease, and the PSP doesn’t help. Is there any Doctor or experienced Nurse in PSP that has answers on treating PSP? No one seems to have answers so she can’t be treated, unless some one has answers.
Thank you all

Between the apathy, depression, and fatigue, it’s a wonder that any of us do anything. The MDS is a neurologist with benefits. They’re experts and they’ll be able to see exactly what your wife needs to break this cycle.

Get a movement disorder specialist. They are trained and certified in movement disorders. That would be your best bet.

Dale Burton is correct in his advice. See a Movement Disorder Specialist. These Neurologists go through 2+ additional years of medical training to help treat PwP's (People with Parkinson's).

Thanks but I tried speech, physical therapist, massage, home nurse, she just has no energy to do anything.
