Effective Treatment for Parkinson's Disease - Know Here

Parkinson's disease is a common problem that affects many people around the world. It makes it hard to move, causes shaking, and makes the body feel stiff.

These symptoms can make everyday activities difficult. But there are ways to deal with Parkinson's disease and make life better. Learning about the treatments available and making small changes in your daily life can really help.

In this blog, we'll talk about the different treatments you can try for Parkinson's disease and how making simple changes in your daily routines can make a big difference.

There are lots of things you can do to help with the symptoms, like taking medicine or trying different therapies.

Also, knowing what makes Parkinson's symptoms worse and being careful about what you eat can really help manage the condition.

By understanding the different stages of Parkinson's disease and working with top psychiatrist in Patna who know a lot about it, you can feel more confident about dealing with it and hope for a better quality of life. 

What causes Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease starts when brain cells that produce dopamine, an important chemical, begin to function poorly. Experts believe that a mix of genetics and environmental factors plays a big role.

Getting older, having family members with Parkinson's, or being exposed to certain chemicals can increase the chances of getting the disease.

The problem begins when the cells making dopamine start to die off, causing issues with how the brain communicates with itself. This results in symptoms like shaking and difficulty in moving smoothly.

Being older than 60, having family members with Parkinson's, or being exposed to certain chemicals can raise the risk of getting it. Knowing about these things helps doctors find ways to treat and prevent it from getting worse. 

Parkinson's disease stages

Parkinson's disease moves through different stages, each with its own challenges.

At first, the signs might not stand out and could be missed easily. But as time goes on, people may notice clearer symptoms, both physical and non-physical.

Doctors need to know about these stages so they can help at the right time. In the beginning, someone with Parkinson's might just have a bit of shaking or stiffness.

But as the disease gets worse, they may have more trouble moving around and thinking clearly. Doctors can change treatments based on these shifts to help handle symptoms and make life better.

Having regular check-ups and adjusting medications and therapies are crucial as Parkinson's progresses. Understanding how Parkinson's changes over time helps people and their families get ready for what's ahead and make sure they get the help they need.

Additionally, to understand what makes Parkinson's disease worse, it's important to watch what you eat, especially when it comes to foods to avoid with Parkinson's disease.

Some foods can make symptoms worse and lead to problems with moving and more inflammation.

These might be foods with lots of sugar, saturated fats, or processed stuff. It's a good idea to eat these kinds of foods in small amounts to help control symptoms.

Also, think about other things that can make Parkinson's symptoms worse, like stress or not getting enough sleep.

Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, veggies, and lean meats can help keep you healthy while dealing with Parkinson's. Making smart choices about what you eat can help make symptoms better and improve your life if you have Parkinson's disease.

Parkinson's disease medication

When I was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, I started exploring ways to treat it. Alongside the medicines my doctor prescribed, I also tried other treatments and adjusted my lifestyle. With guidance from my doctors, I created a plan for taking my medications that made me feel less sick and more comfortable.

Being diagnosed also helped me to understand my condition better and what might happen in the future. By taking an active role in my treatment and learning about Parkinson's disease, I took charge of my health journey and improved a lot.

By using a combination of medicines and lifestyle changes, I achieved a level of health I didn't think was possible before.

Conclusion

In conclusion, even though dealing with Parkinson's disease is tough, but there are ways to make life better. Finding the right treatment and support from experts like a psychiatrist in Patna or a top psychiatrist in Patna is crucial.

Talking to experienced doctors, including Parkinson's disease specialists, making healthy lifestyle changes, and keeping up with new treatments can give hope and help people take control of their journey with Parkinson's.

By actively participating in their treatment, making positive changes to how they live, and staying informed, individuals can face the challenges with confidence and strength, leading to a satisfying life despite the difficulties caused by the condition.

We all are familiar with the name John F. Nash, the Nobel Prize winner in economics for his game theory in the year 1994. Atleast you must have seen one of the best movies ever made (according to me) named ‘A Beautiful Mind’ based on this great mathematicians life. How inspiring it is to know about his life, after suffering from schizophrenia (A disorder that affects a person’s ability to think, feel and behave clearly) and the way recover and finally won the Nobel prize. It is truly inspiring.

Many of us know John Nash’s  story. But how many of us have ever heard about an Indian mathematician Vashishth Narayan Singh. None or may be very few. It is very unfortunate as a country for India, as it cannot look after it’s own countries wealth. I feel this is a person everyone should know about his journey at least every Indian. 

From a village in Bihar to USA, from  the life of name and fame to the life of mental disturbance and poverty this is Dr. Vashishth Narayan Singh’s story-

Dr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh was born as the first son of Late Lal Bahadur Singh and Smt. Lahaso Devi in Village Basantpur, under Sadar Block of Dist. Bhojpur on 2nd April 1942. His father was working as a policeman in the state Police Dept.. Vashishtha Narayan Singh had his primary education in the village school. Thereafter, he went to Netarhat School in class VI. In the year 1962, he passed his matriculation examination, topping in the entire state of Bihar. 

After his school education, he got admission in the prestigious Patna Science College. From Netarhat to Patna Science College, in 1963, was a natural progression for him but what happened thereafter was something extraordinary. Dr Nagendra Nath, Principal of the college, also a Maths teacher, on getting complaints, one after the other about Vashishtha often disturbing the Maths classes by posing questions somewhat unrelated, summoned him to his office chamber one day. He was given a few difficult questions, much beyond the Intermediate class he was student of, to solve. Not only did he solve them promptly right in front of the Principal but also further showed his skill in solving each of them in ways more than one. Dr Nath was awestruck, stood still for a while in total disbelief for he was face to face with kind of prodigy he had never encountered before. What followed after that was even more remarkable. The Rules of the University were amended and made flexible (courtesy, Governor cum Chancellor of the university) to enable Vashishtha to straightaway take the B Sc (Maths Hons.) final year exam after his first year in college. He topped the class with distinction. At the end of his second year in college, he was allowed to take the M Sc (Maths) final exam.

In earlymid 1960’s Bihar College of Engineering Patna, was in much better shape and world class faculty members used to visit the College. There was some Mathematics Conference in Bihar College of Engineering during mid 60’s where Prof John L. Kelley, HOD University of California, Berkley(UCB) as also present. 

He had presented a list of 5 most difficult problems in Mathematics or so. Vasistha Narayan Singh solved all of them and that too in different ways.

This Berkley professor got impressed and requested him to come to Berkley for further study. Vasistha Narayan Singh told him that it would be difficult for him to come to US on his own. HOD promised all the help and kept the word. HOD arranged for visa and flight ticket and got him into UCB. He took good care of Vasistha Narayan Singh at UCB as Vasistha Narayan Singh was a shy person. Vasistha Narayan Singh did not let down HOD and did his PhD with style and went on to work for NASA. You can find his Ph.D thesis even now here.

Things were going fine with him till sometime in 1975, and what happened one day changed all that. He was found snubbing his junior for an error in a manner somewhat unfamiliar with him and much to the annoyance and disappointments of others working in his unit. Promptly he was referred to the doctor – a psychiatrist. He was diagnosed as the one suffering from schizophrenia at its early stage and was prescribed some therapeutic medicines to continue with.

By then, Singh had become a role model for the youth in Bihar. He worked at UCB as assistant professor. He was perhaps also Bihar’s most eligible bachelor of his time. Marriage proposals came from across the state. In 1972 he finally gave in to his family’s wishes and decided to tie the knot. His bride was the daughter of a government doctor from a nearby village. A month after the nuptials, the couple departed to live out their American dream.

“In America, Bhaiyya‘s wife one day found him taking some pills,” says Prasad (his brother), “and asked her father about them. That’s how we ourselves came to know about his illness.”

In 1974, the couple returned to India and Singh started teaching at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur. However, he soon become “fed up with the internal politics” there and opted instead to join the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai. He later moved to the Indian Statistical Institute in Kolkata.

Badly shaken by Singh’s mental condition, his wife left for her father’s house, never to return to her husband. Prasad says, “We do not blame her. Not everybody can live under such circumstances.” Their divorce was finalised in 1976. “It had a huge impact on our brother. He suddenly become very withdrawn and stopped eating,” says Prasad. A few months later, he became violent. The family was left with no options, but to send him to the Kanke Mental Asylum (now Central Institute of Psychiatry, Kanke).

He was discharged from the institution in 1985, but two years later, he disappeared from home. Despite all efforts, he could not be located. For four long years, the family waited for word about him, until some people informed them that Dr Vashishtha Singh had been found loitering near a garbage dump in his ex-wife’s village like this-

“After that, we have never let him out of our sight,” says Prasad.

When I saw the above picture for the first time I just couldn’t beleive my eyes. “How on earth this is possible” was my first expression. You might is thinking the same.

Now He speaks, but only when spoken to, and he avoids eye contact while speaking. When asked about his stay in Berkeley, he says with some lucidity, “I had a very good time there. I used to live at 10/20 Vine Road or was that 20/10?” Then just as suddenly he loses his train of thought. He mumbles, “But all of that has been destroyed now. Don’t you know Russia dropped atom bombs there? America is a wasteland now. Kelly sahib is also very worried.” His nephew, Rakesh, tells him that his mentor died many years ago. Singh insists, “No, no, he is alive, I spoke to him last night. He is in Delhi.”

  I think how ignorant can be a country, above pic is just the reflection of this. A national treasure like him are treated like this. “We are not asking for any financial help from the government. All we want him to have is an academic atmosphere.” said his brother.

Compare this story with John F. Nash’s story. Almost similar circumstances he was also suffering from schizophrenia but with the support of his wife, friends and country he recovered and went on to win Nobel Prize. His story became famous. well he deserved that.

What happened here with Vashishtha Narayan Singh after being found with schizophrenia his wife left him (when he needs her most), most importantly his own country didn’t came up to support and help him.

The biggest irony is even now his own country is not giving him the respect he deserves. Probably they don’t even heard his name as media is busy spreading shit news.

But it’s our responsibility to know this gem and show some respect. Some of his pics

As the age grows, we tend to forget things. Sometimes, forgetting small things doesn't matter a lot.

But, if you notice you’re forgetting important details, and daily activities there might be something else going on. Do you constantly forget where you’ve kept things?

Has it felt like you’re forgetting important dates you had no problem remembering before?

Do you forget directions to familiar places? If you’re having trouble with things mentioned before, you should see a psychiatrist in Patna, Dr. Vivek Pratap Singh. 

Dementia psychology

Dementia is a broad category characterized by mental decline as one ages. It’s a cluster of syndrome affecting thinking and memory abilities.

Dementia is more prominent as one ages. But, secondary dementia can manifest whenever depending on the cause.

As one ages, the risk of dementia grows. That leads to many asking questions like can i prevent it? Are there steps to curb its growth and symptoms? 

How to prevent dementia and memory loss?

Dementia’s major risk factor is growing age. Old age can’t be prevented. So, rather adopting other ways can help just as much. 

Regular physical activity puts one’s general health in good condition. It’s one of the best ways to improve blood circulation in your heart, and all the other organs. Being physically fit has shown a positive impact on mental well-being of a person. For someone, who doesn’t take care of their fitness, it can be hard for them to perform activities that enhance physical well-being. This is the reason one should find activities that are accommodating and comfortable for them so that they don’t have a reason to break the streak. 

Eating a healthy diet is immensely vital for the brain to get adequate nutrients and vitamins. Try eating a varied range of different foods for the best results. For example, foods like wholemeal bread, and rice have a good amount of required nutrients. Almonds are a great source of a vital brain nutrient called L-carnitine that increases brain activity and prevents neurological decline. 

Fishes like salmon, and mackerel are rich in iodine and other minerals, and omega-3 needed for optimal brain function and reduces risk of stroke and various other heart diseases. Walnuts contain minerals, melatonin, and omega-6 that slows cognitive decline and reduces brain inflammation.

Don’t drink too much alcohol. It slows down cognitive abilities and neuronal function. Drinking alcohol in heavy amounts can cause alterations in neuronal size and shape. 

How to avoid dementia and Alzheimer's?

Dementia and Alzheimer's are associated with growing age. Dementia is a symptom of Alzheimer's disease where the individual’s memory and important mental functions go through a gradual decline. These symptoms start manifesting in older age. Hence, if one has a family history, or knows they are at risk of this condition, they should follow ways that can prevent the early-onset. Following are the ways to prevent alzheimer’s:

Blood pressure control during midlife crisis can save not only from cognitive decline, but even reduces risk of stroke. Try to aim for systolic pressure to be below 130 mm/hg. 

As global warming affects the world, there has been a link associated with air pollution and dementia. Avoid harmful gases and inhalants, and try not to go out where there's a high risk of toxic inhalants such as company and industrial sites. 

Smoking has always been a culprit in one’s health. Tobacco is the most harmful substance one can introduce to their body. Even if it’s too late, stopping smoking can never be. Smoking cessation helps reduce the risk. 

Traumatic brain injuries are major secondary causes for dementia. Avoiding accidents to your head, by wearing protective gear while playing or driving can help a great deal in preventing injuries to the head. If one has sustained any kind of injury to the head, make sure to visit the GP to rule out concussions or delayed hemorrhages. This type of dementia manifests immediately without any warning.

How to prevent dementia in old age? 

Dementia is associated with memory loss that most often is noticed by someone else. Gradually, the individual has to depend on someone else for daily chores and this can lead to people getting anxious and upset. A lot of people get more and more depressed with old age, adding dementia on top of that is a recipe for disaster. Preventing it can somehow control a bit of damage. The various ways to prevent dementia are 

First and foremost, limit alcohol and smoking to a bare minimum. Researchers have found these substances damage the brain and its neurons. Smoking harms the blood vessels in the brain causing a negative impact and memory decline. 

Mental and social activities help the brain relieve stress and cope with aging mood changes. Try doing activities that stimulate brain cells developing thinking and memory skills. This way the brain is challenged and it remains active reducing the risk of dementia. 

Treatment: 

Treating already progressed dementia can be done through medications. A lot of people ask questions, can you slow down dementia with medication? The answer is yes. There are some medications that can slow down dementia like cholinesterase inhibitors such as donepezil, and rivastigmine; these medications reduce the breakdown of a chemical in the brain that is responsible for memory functions. 

Antidepressants (SSRIs) are given to improve mood symptoms such as depression and anxiety brought on by dementia. 

The supplement to prevent dementia is memantine, a brain chemical that is for memory and learning. Dementia targets these chemicals so the physician might prescribe it to improve the symptoms. 

Dementia is a grave disease that can push a person to the brim of depression and in severe cases, suicide too.

So, if you or your loved one is suffering from dementia please contact the best psychiatrist in Kankarbagh, Patna, Dr. Vivek Pratap Singh. He can counsel you about the condition to the best of his abilities.
