Good Morning everyone
I don't know whether this been covered before covered before, but reading the forum I'm so surprised at the age many of us are, as before joining this forum I had been told I'm the youngest person in my area with Parkinsons. I now realise there are so many people around my age I was wondering if we could out of interest compile a bit of a age list?
I'm 47 and been diagnosed 7 years
Thanks Craa
