I have Parkinson’s and have had it for at least 10 years. From a patient’s perspective I have continued to experience a loss of memory and other cognitive abilities. I’m certainly concerned about this downward progression knowing it is getting worse as time goes by. I can’t definitely make a direct connection the memory loss to my medications, but I wouldn’t rule out the possibility there is a linkage.
This is probably not the feedback your looking for but I felt compelled to share this with you while I still have the ability to it.
Go luck in your search for feedback you seek.

Richard, I truly wish you all the best. Ive watched Mr. John go from walking and feeding himself to laying in a hospital bed (at home with his wife) and having to be fed.
I really wish any & everyone with a crippling disease had someone that loved them as much as Mr. Johns wife does him. Sometimes I tease, saying that he is just spoiled and likes how she takes care of him.
All my best to you Richard.
