My husband has had Parkinson’s for 12 years. He was very fortunate with the tremor only in his left arm and hand.
In the last year the tremor is now in right arm and hand. Makes doing something’s a little more difficult. He has remained active and has always been disciplined about walking outside or on the treadmill. He had also been doing a boxing class for Parkinson’s for about 5 months but was sick with UTI and flu and is still recovering his strength. Now I am starting to see some mental decline which varies by the day. Bedtime is difficult as he goes from bed to chair to get comfortable and complains of being hot or cold. A it would help if he could cover himself when cold but doesn’t seem to understand how to do it. Anyone familiar with the problem of covering themselves while in bed? aslso any ideas for sleep help besides Melatonin. Dr. prescribed a sleeping pill but made it worse.
