How Parkinson’s Care in Albuquerque Can Help

Parkinson’s disease affects different people in different ways, however, the most common physical symptoms include tremors, mobility issues, and balance problems. The disease can also cause non-motor symptoms including a slowing of the thoughts, anxiety and depression, and hallucinations and delusions.

Parkinson’s is a progressive disease. This means that while your loved one may have very few symptoms of the disease when they are first diagnosed, the symptoms will grow worse over time. Tremors can eventually leave your loved one unable to perform day-to-day tasks and activities, balance problems can put your loved one at a high risk of falling, and mobility issues can leave your loved one unable to walk or stand on their own.
