Clinic


Parkinsonism

  • Tremor
  • Spasticity: Rigid muscle tone and progressive muscle stiffness and weakness, causing abnormal, writhing movements
  • Bradykinesia: abnormal slowness of movement [2]
  • Myoclonus


Initial symptoms

  • Paralysis: , Paraplegia / Paraparesis
  • Visual disturbances/ Blindness
  • Seizures
  • Movements disorders such as Jerking, Myoclonus
  • Deafness: Less commonly, hearing loss or deafness will develop


Athetosis

  • Slow, writhing, involuntary movements

Depression

  • Hypomimia or Masked faces: Reduced degree of facial expression / Emotion
  • bradyphrenia


Dementia

  • Cognitive dysfunction leading to bradyphrenia
  • Cognition impairment such as problems in thinking, remembering, reasoning, imagining and processing thoughts which leads to Dementia[3]
  • In my research, GSS is the best remedy of Alzheimer disease, because of Memory weakness + Psychosis/ Behavioral change + Impaired Concentration + Depression


Cerebellar Ataxia

  • Nystagmus
  • Progressive Ataxia / Incoordination may present as unsteadiness, difficulty walking, and clumsiness /Awkwardness
  • Ocular dysmetria: Difficulties judging distance or scale
  • Slurred speech which progress to severe Spastic Dysarthria with UMN origin


Pyramidal signs / UMN

Corticospinal tract

Corticobulbar tract
