Hello @lyndavdp and @susanarch, and welcome to the PD support group on Mayo Connect. I can understand your need for information and support as you are dealing with a PD diagnosis.

First, @lyndavdp, there are great physical therapies for Parkinson's. I recommend you ask your doctor for a referral to a physical therapist who specializes in PD. There is a great program, Big and Loud (https://www.lsvtglobal.com/LSVTBIG), which addresses the movement and the voice problems associated with a Parkinson's diagnosis. Exercise, along with medication, is important to delay disability associated with PD. Have you been prescribed medication? If so, is it helping with your symptoms?

@susanarch, I'm so glad you are helping your husband with this new health challenge. Learning all you can is important. Has your husband begun medication yet? What about physical therapy?

To you both, I recommend that you check out the Davis Phinney Foundation website. They have lots of videos where PD patients and neurologists speak on many issues related to Parkinson's. Here is a link to the website,

If you go to the website, you will find numerous resources for patients and videos of webinars. These can be helpful in your understanding of this neurological disorder.

When I was diagnosed, my main symptoms were a gait disorder (when I was tired, I couldn't walk straight, but veered to the right side). I also had balance problems and a very soft voice. What symptoms led you to see a neurologist?
