She looks very energetic and nothing indicates she is a patient with three diseases.

　　Sabadi was diagnosed with primary Parkinson disease one year ago and she had have type2 diabetes and hypertension (high risk) before that. The definite diagnosis was no doubt sad news for her. Was there any worsen thing than that?

　　Unfortunately, there is. Doctors told her that they didn’t have effective way to treat this disease.

　　“In the past one year, I have been taking the oral medication. Doctors told me that the therapy now can merely improve the condition of Parkinson disease, instead of stopping the process of the disease.”
