Parkinson\u2019s disease itself is not a fatal disease. But it can reduce the life expectancy of the afflicted individual. The life expectancy of someone who has Parkinson\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0disease is different for each individual.<\/p>\n

Studies have shown that those who develop\u00a0Parkinson\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0disease later in life have a faster progression of the disease than those who develop it at a younger age.<\/p>\n

Parkinson\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0disease affects the motor center of your brain. A person who has this disease may develop\u00a0tremors<\/a>\u00a0of the hands, legs or face. They may have trouble keeping their balance and may walk with a shuffling gait.<\/p>\n

There are medications on the market that will help to control some of the symptoms of\u00a0Parkinson\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0disease. Controlling these symptoms is a major factor in preserving some quality of life for the Parkinson\u2019s disease patient.<\/p>\n

There is no set years that can be attached to the life expectancy of a Parkinson\u2019s disease patient. There are too many variables involved that can affect the life expectancy. But in general, Parkinson\u2019s disease can lead to severe incapacity within ten to twenty years.<\/p>\n

When a patient with Parkinson\u2019s disease become severely disabled they will lose their ability to walk and talk. The muscles become stiff or frozen. They will also lose their ability to chew and swallow.\u00a0Dementia<\/a>\u00a0can set in.<\/p>\n

A person in the advanced stages of Parkinson\u2019s disease will be bedfast and require total care, much like an infant. A feeding tube may need to be placed for nutrition.<\/p>\n

The cause of death in a Parkinson\u2019s disease patient is usually from some other underlying factor instead of the disease itself. Patients that are unable to move on their own are at a high risk for pneumonia and other infections. A Parkinson\u2019s patient that is unable to drink will develop\u00a0urinary tract infections<\/a>. These infections will be treated with antibiotics. The infections are likely to reoccur due to the patients debilitated state.<\/p>\n

A patient with Parkinson\u2019s disease is at a high risk for bedsores because of their inability to move on their own. The patients poor nutritional state will not allow the bedsore to heal properly. Infection can set in and the patient can become septic and die.<\/p>\n

Other causes of death in a patient with advanced Parkinson\u2019s disease can be aspiration pneumonia, starvation, dehydration, electrolyte imbalances that can lead to\u00a0heart attack<\/a>\u00a0or a stroke.<\/p>\n

The life expectancy of a Parkinson\u2019s patient cannot be predicted because of so many variable factors. If someone you love has Parkinson\u2019s disease, it is important that you help them maintain some quality of life for as long as possible. There is no way to predict how long your loved one will live with Parkinson\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n
