My husband was diagnosed 4 months with Parkinson s Disease. He sees a neurologist monthly. He is on Carbidopa/levodopa ,complex vit. B, and rivastigmine patch. He also is going through Physical TherPy program. He has an arm that he doesn t seem to use normally and I wonder will it come back? Can we re train it to be functional again?

Hello,
The treatment is on the right track.
If the symptoms persist you can consider newer techniques like DBS (deep brain stimulation).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
