Since arriving here in Panajachel, I have developed symptoms which I believe may be Parkinson's Disease. This involves my right hand and arm. Also my right foot. I arrived at this self-diagnosis by looking at videos of persons with Parkinson's on YouTube. Also by reading online medical information.
When I experience this problem, I have somewhat uncontrolled movement. Thru using a great deal of concentration, I'm often able to reduce these movements in order to accomplish a task. For example, like right now. I am using both hands to type this blog to you.
Doctor appointment
I have made an appointment with my primary care doctor at Kaiser Permanente for March 15th. I return to the United States on March 11th.

Don't jump to any conclusions George, there are probably many other things it could be. Sending positive thoughts your way!
ReplyDeleteLikewise, George...prayers for your wellbeing
ReplyDeletePraying for you George. Been hanging out with you since 2004!
ReplyDeleteSelf diagnosing is not a good idea. I agree with what Croft said. Meanwhile try to enjoy each day to the fullest.
ReplyDeleteThanks for making the doctor appointment right away. At our ages, it's important to not let anything "go away on it's own". Thanks again for all the travel again.
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best George. You're a cool dude!
ReplyDeleteI predict you will feel much better by the day of your Dr. Visit!
ReplyDeleteKeeping positive thoughts for you.
I had that happen to me once and it turned out to be a medication I was taking. Changed medications and the problem when away. Hoping the best for you!

ReplyDeleteMorning, George. Smart of you to make that appointment so quickly.
ReplyDeleteWe need to know that our George is taken care of! I do hope your symptoms go away, or at least don't get any worse before you see that doctor. This business of getting older is quite a trip, isn't it? We never know when something new is going to crop up out of the blue.
I had something like that a couple a weeks ago and then my arms started flailing around, it turned out to be very low blood sugar,i`m good now after the doctor. Wishing you the best outcome 78 rocks, Warren
