Fighting with Parkinson using Alternative medicine
The Parkinson affects commonly to older adults , above 50 years , but can appear at a younger age. It is a degenerative neurological disorder that affects in the control of body movements. I think alternative medicine is better than conventional for Parkinson , because this disease has no cure, so therapies and other supplements of alternative medicine may help you with this disease that will be with you for the rest of your life.
The alternative medicine is better than conventional because it helps you with long therapies , and is a disease that have no cure so I think conventional meidine is worst , because you spend a lot of money in pilds and that things and at the final I think is the same result but with this medicine(alternative) you spend less money than conventional and the result is the same.
In my opinion the best medicine for the Parkinson disease is the Alternative, it is less expensive , more effective in all ways and therapies and other supplements will help the patient with the disease.

Research-
Parkinson
1.- What are the
characteristics of this illness or upheaval?
Parkinson
affects commonly to older adults, above 50 years, but can appear at a younger
age. Is a progressive disease, a degenerative neurological disorder that
affects in the control of your body movement and lead you to start shaking and
have difficulty with walking, movement and coordination. Is one of the most
common nervous system disorders . According to the Northwest Parkinson’s
foundation in 2010 it afflicts over 1 million people. Each person is affected
differently and the rate of progression varies greatly between individuals.
2.- Why does it
occur?
Parkinson’s
occurs when certain nerve cells in a part of the brain called “substantia
nigra” die or become impaired normally, these cells produce a vital chemical
known as “dopamine”. When approximately 70% of the dopamine producing cells are
damaged , the sumptoms of Parkinson disease appear.
3.- What are the
most common symptoms?
The first
symptom of Parkinson is trembling or shaking, this start on one part of
the body usually in hands. Also can affect on your arms , legs , feet or face.
Other
symptom is that you start moving slower. This symptoms become worst over the
time.
4.- What types of
treatment or therapy can a patient use? How long do they take? What are their
pros and cons?
Surgery may be
a option for some patients. These injuries do not cure Parkinson’s but may help
with symptoms. Support groups may help with the changes caused by disease.
Most people
respond to medications . How much medications relieve symptoms, and for how
long can be very different in each person.
5.- What are
the real possibilities of recovery if using this type of medicine?
Parkinson is a
progressively degenerative disease that don’t have a cure.
The alternative
medicine provide supplements, formulas or other alternatives that help
you manage the disease while you progressively degenerate for the rest of your
life.
6.- What type
of remedies can a patient take?
The optimal
combination of treatments depends upon the person’s signs and symptoms , age,
stage and activity. There are six main types of medications available to treat
symptoms of Parkinson’s disease:
Levadopa ,
dopamine agonists , inhibitors of enzymes that inactivate dopamine , anticholinergics
, and amantadine. Estrogen may be recommended for postmenopausal women with
Parkinson.
7.- What are
the costs involved?
The combined direct and
indirect costs Parkinson’s, including treatment , social security payments and
lost income from inability to work is estimated to be nearly $25 billion per
year in the United States. Medications costs for an individual
person with Parkinson average $2.500 a year and therapeutic surgery can cost up
to $100.000 dollars per patient.
8.- Do health programs in Chile cover this
treatment expenses? How about health programs of the USA, UK, New Zealand, Australia or any
European country?
In Chile exist a
program of the government called Auge-Ges , that cover 69 diseases
and Parkinson’s is the number 62 in the list.
This program consist that
any person that belong to the public system (fonasa) or private system of
health (isapre) and have this disease can use it. But is necessary go to
a specific place indicated by the program of health that you have (public or
private).
In others countries like New Zealand , all people
that born in the country have access free health.
In Australia the treatment
of Parkinson’s is similar with Chile but only because the places assigned for the
treatment are free. And in this country all diseases are covered by the
government.
