This handbook was written to guide patients with Parkinson's disease and their loved ones as they gather information, use therapeutics to treat symptoms, and progress in their disease over time. It offers necessary information and provides a list of resources available to patients at the Rush University program. Receiving a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease is a challenge that many people face, but this team of authors and contributors hope to provide information that can improve quality of life for patients with Parkinson's disease.
