What is Parkinson’s disease?

Parkinson’s disease is a movement disorder in which the brain doesn’t have enough of the chemical dopamine to help transmit nerve impulses throughout the body. It is a progressive & degenerative condition and a difficult condition to live with it.  It can be controlled with medication or surgery in most cases, but at present, there is no cure.
