For better treatment and research for women with Parkinson's Disease
RAISING OUR VOICES
————
There are more than 10 million people worldwide diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. How many are women? What is the average age women are diagnosed? How do women react differently to medication than men? There are no clear answers. We need answers.
And so we started the Women's Parkinson's Project to raise our voices for better treatment and research for women with Parkinson’s disease.

Hospital Date
Siddharth has managed to book my appointment with the specialist from the UK. He visits every three months and has good experience with YOPD.
As expected, his charges are high, but we wanted to go with an open mind. The next morning, we were ready by 6 a.m. and had to catch the train in 40 min from Tirupati to Chennai.
Today Is Going To Be A Good Day
Today is going to be a good day, getting ready for a special night away with friends.
I actually managed to get back to sleep after waking up at my usual time of 4:30 am so I'm well rested and ready to get stuff done. My nights are very restless - I talk, laugh, shout and fling my arms around in my sleep. A while back I even managed to throw myself out of bed.
