🎗️Michael J Fox has been living with Parkinson's disease for almost 19 years and has become a prominent advocate for finding a cure.
🧠Parkinson's disease affects the production of dopamine in the brain, causing motor skill difficulties and other symptoms.
🏥Treatment for Parkinson's disease typically involves medication, such as levodopa, which helps to increase dopamine levels.
💡Deep brain stimulation surgery is an option for patients who do not respond well to medication, blocking abnormal nerve signals and improving symptoms.
