Amazing footage shows the transformation of a Parkinson’s patient’s life with new treatment to help deal with the debilitating condition’s tremors.
The breakthrough drug is called Produo-dopa and has been approved by the NHS for treatment of Parkinson’s disease, at £31,000 per patient.
Medication is administered via an under-skin cannula and portable automatic pump worn on the person’s back.
In the first of two clips posted on Instagram by NHS Sherwood Forest Hospitals Trust in Nottinghamshire, 52-year-old Damien Gath is seen suffering shakes and spasms while walking and making a cup of tea.
But after using the treatment system, Gath’s movements are smoother, he’s walking and making tea apparently quite comfortably with a smooth stirring motion.
