An almost daily cartoon about Parkinson's

Pass the jalapenos!

Turns out there’s nicotine in peppers. This might be a safer way to get it in your system than tobacco! (link here!)

Just do it!

Okay, all you young onset guys and gals are putting to old dude to shame! So I am making this cartoon brain “DI” to tell me to get off my fanny and start putting a priority on exercise…

Berries take out the garbage!

Apparently ingesting berries (I don’t know what kind) helps clear out the toxic garbage in the brain. So I need to get me a little basket and start picking! Link here.

NEVER TRY TO READ TEXTS WHEN DRIVING…

ESPECIALLY if you have Parkinson’s, and it’s 4 in a row from a stressed out client, and you’re at the top of 140 foot tall bridge over the river! NOTHING BAD HAPPENED! But from now on the phone is going OFF till I reach my destination… (stupid eh?)

You might just be a fathead…

Apparently some of our neurons, when we are Parkie’s, have all decided to become “couch potatoes” and have stored too much fat! (link here) So we got to put them little suckers on treadmills!

Azilect, or “Rosemary’s Sausage…”

Okay, the VA doc put me on Azilect. Sorta’ like getting booster rockets for your dopamine. Problem is you have avoid foods high in tyramine, like aged sausages and cheeses. Does he know that I live in a state where people pass around pics of their favorite sausage at church instead of their children (TRUE story man!)?
