Extra information provided by this PSP
Original uncertainty examples How my care can keep in line with the progression of the disease and take note of new developments ~ If epilepsy(or diabetes) is a known symptom of the condition-should base line investigations be carried out at diagnosis ~ When to have hearing/eye examinations. ~ how often should people have heart checks? ~ have annual heart checks ~ What do you do if you’re having a ‘mitochondrial episode’ more information on mitochondria- like checks for diabetes, kidney. ~ Would a checklist of procedures be helpful? E.g when to have blood tests and which ones, when is my cardiology check due etc ~ How often should be seen?
