Introduction: Hello, I'm Koby

Hello, my name is Koby. I am a US Marine veteran. I am 51 years old and was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease by the VA in March of this year. A DaTscan confirmed the clinical diagnosis. Like many of you my symptoms started years ago. I lost my sense of smell almost a decade ago. My motor symptoms started with a slight tremor in my left hand about 5 years ago.
