Introduction
In order to participate well in any decisions made about your treatment, you will first need to know what choices are available to you. The best people to discuss these with are the doctor, nurse, pharmacist, and any other members of the multidisciplinary team [link to question below Who should I turn to for advice and how do I access them?] who can help you to manage your Parkinson's.
Please remember that it is very important to tell a health professional about any other medicines you are already taking, including over-the-counter medications, remedies or supplements.
If you are caring for someone with Parkinson's, you may want to ask these questions on that person’s behalf. You should also ask what kind of help and support you can expect from health professionals as you shouldn’t have to cope alone.
