From Diagnosis On: My First Days with Parkinson’s

The Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Podcast

A Parkinson’s diagnosis can bring many different emotions — denial, anger, sadness, frustration. It’s important to know that no matter what emotions you feel, you’re not alone. Listen as people with Parkinson’s and their loved ones discuss how they’ve navigated emotions in the early years with Parkinson’s disease. This podcast episode offers personal reflections on steps people can take toward acceptance and real-world advice for those recently diagnosed and beyond.
If you’ve been diagnosed with Parkinson’s in the past two years, you can play a critical role in the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) study. Learn more at michaeljfox.org/podcast-newlydiagnosed
The online part of PPMI is open to anyone over age 18 in the U.S. Join the study that could change everything at michaeljfox.org/podcast-ppmi
