Sharing symptoms and experiences

Hello out there ! My husband was diagnosed with PD about 3 years ago. He's 73 years old, I'm 68. We first noticed one of his hands shaking and its been doing that for 3 years. He retired "again" about 5 months ago. Doesn't seem to be interested in anything but TV and sleeping ALOT in his chair and it's not even a recliner. Getting more rigid and walking slower. Confirmed about 3 months ago that he needed hip replacement surgery but the Dr. didn't push it. Dr. said my husband would know when and if he chooses to have it. Has a small crack in his hip. Arthritis probably the Culprit. Getting more nervous and not talking as much but he's never been a big talker but it's definitely a change. Still drives, shops for groceries and pays our Bills. He has night jerks in his sleep and sometimes yells out or sometimes mumbles then laughs. I bought a body pillow to put between us as his twitching wakes me up. He's going to his Dr. next month. Any suggestions how I can Woo him into taking me with him to his appt.? We've been married 12 years. Known him 5 years longer than that. I told him I needed to go to get more involved in his health as I will be the one here when things get worse unless
something happens to me first. He won't respond. Makes me so sad and I just want to throw up my hands in the air. I love him very much but living with a very negative person and feeling like I'm with Don Rickles Jr. sometimes is more than I think I can stand. That's why I searched for a support chat line. Maybe someone out there can give me a suggestion that's been where I am right now on this crazy journey called PD.
