• What are the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?

My father and grandfather both suffered from Parkinson’s disease when they were about 74 years old. I am now 56 years old. What are the chances that I will suffer from the disease too? Are there any symptoms of this disease that I should watch for?

Symptoms could be slowness in movement (bradykinesia) and shuffling gait. Most common symptom is resting tremors. You don't have to develop PD even if it runs in the family. Suggest healthy diet and antioxidants.
