Parkinson’s Disease - Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by progressive dopamine brain cells loss. Symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are correctable to an extent.

“A blood test for Parkinson's disease would mean you could find out if a person was in danger of getting the disease, before the symptoms started. This would help the development of medicines that could protect the brain, which would be better for the quality of life and future health of older people”, Allsop said in his report which will be published in the Journal of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology.
Parkinson's Disease

Eye Twitching - Blepharospasm - Causes, symptoms, diagnosis and Treatment
Uncontrolled muscle twitching occurs in this condition, though benign it may need further investigation and sometimes an injection of Botox can cures it.
