SINCE 2011 my gait gradually altered and walking became slower and gradually progressed. i also started loosing balance and had several sudden falls. I was diagnosed as initial Parkinson s patient. But so far up to Sept 2013 i dont have Tremors or rigidity.for the last one year I need walking aid like Tree tonged stick or walker whicch has attached basket for carrying personal items around. sometimes in the afternoon i get mild but persistent headache. I drink 2 cups of coffee and three pegs of whiskey every day - over a period of 19 hours - very slow drinks intake.
