Staying upright

I have been having falls almost daily now and am.having trouble staying upright

  1. Hello. I’m sorry you having trouble with your balance. Have you checked with your physician recently? They could help you figure out what could help you. We wish you all the best here at ParkinsonsDisease.net, Suzanne Troy, team member

    1. : Falling and loss of balance can be frustrating and frightening. As Suzanne suggested contact with your physician is important. It may help to keep a log of when falls occur to see if perhaps there is a pattern as to when they occur. Finding the cause is the best place to start. Do you use any kind of aid to help with balance? I know I would be lost without my rollator. Physical therapy has also really helped me. Thank you for sharing your story as many of us with share your struggle. Keep us informed of what your Dr may suggest. It maybe helpful to others. Thea DeStephano Community Team Member
