legs go out parkinsons

My friend has Parkinsons. Her legs go  out. What causes this? She cannot walk until they come back.



This discussion is related to Parkinsons and leg numbness.

Parkinsons is a terrible disease that is not fully understood. Simply put, your muscles fail to respond to the direction that your mind tells them to. There are many Parkinsons sites on the net which go into this in detail and discuss the medications. There are medications which can keep things under control for a period of time, but they must be taken at frequent intervals, and compliance is difficult.
