A 78-year old Malay widow was a globe-trotter. However, she suddenly experienced numbness in both her legs. Within 10 days, her numbness had spread upward to both thighs and waist. She was depressed.

How can she be cared for at home?
What must be monitored when caring for her at home?
How can her condition be investigated?
What test(s) can be done?
Is there treatment for her condition?
Can her condition improve?
Will her condition worsen?
What advice will you give her caregivers?
Vitamin E
Vitamin E deficiency leads to muscle weakness and sight problems. Vitamin E oil (softgel capsules) may help to reduce the patient's leg numbness. Vitamin E is neuro-regenerative and helps nerves to grow or create new networks around lesions or problematic areas. How soon, what dose, how extensive, how effective, all these questions will depend on existing research findings and future research on vitamin E on nerve regeneration.

My husband will be 81 years old next month and was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease 13 months ago. his main symptom were and rigidity or stiffness of his right-hand side.he also had some difficulty writing. The original diagnosis was confirmed three months later by a second neurologist. He was on one tablet of pramipexole (Sifrol), 0.25 mg three times a day. Four months ago his neurologist added Biperiden, 2 mg. he takes half a tablet of Biperiden three times a day. Since the original diagnosis, his stiffness has slowly increased. He lost touch with reality. Suspecting it was the medication I took him off the Siferol (with the doctor’s knowledge) and started him on PD natural herbal formula we ordered from GREEN HOUSE HERBAL CLINIC, I spoke to few people who used the treatment here in Canada and they all gave a positive response, his symptoms totally declined over a 6 weeks use of the Green House Parkinson’s disease natural herbal formula. He is now almost 81 and doing very well, the disease is totally reversed! (Visit their website www . Greenhouseherbalclinic . com) I am thankful to nature, herbs are truly gift from God. Share with friends!!
