What is the full definition of Parkinson's disease in words that a 14 year old could understand? Everything I look up for my science class is to hard for my students to understand. Please send me something easier. Thanks so much! (anonymous)
My father has Parkinson's disease and has been in and out of hospitals for different reasons. The doctors at the hospital often alter his medications. He then has trouble swallowing and displays other symptoms. Are there any medications that can be taken by IV? (JP)
Do you have any suggestions or resources that would help a person with Parkinson's more easily use his/her personal computer? I am a computer instructor who works with older adults. I have a student with PD who is having a hard time controlling her physical movements and is finding the computer and the mouse to be almost impossible to use. Your suggestions on how to help her are greatly appreciated.

I am currently being treated for Restless Leg Syndrome, but also experience similar "twitching" in my arms, neck and shoulders at times. How closely related is Parkinson's disease with Restless Leg Syndrome? Could RLS be an early symptom of Parkinson's? (CN)
