Parkinson’s can be caused by drug abuse.

A friend in the movie industry told me about a famous actor who suddenly developed Parkinson’s at age 35 after consuming some cocaine that had a contaminant.

I have seen young people with brain damage from pesticide contaminated marijuana as well as impure meth.

“Parkinson’s can be caused by drug abuse.”

Traumatic Brain injury can often look like Parkinson’s.

I deal with the shaking, stumbling, etc. Plus I have a hereditary Essential tremor. Thank you, Mama!
Lol.. it was worth having her for a mother.
