Video shows 'life-changing' transformation of Parkinson's sufferer after new drug

  • last month
Footage shows a Parkinson's sufferer's "life-changing" transformation after taking a new wonder treatment - for just one week.

Damian Gath, 52, who previously went to the gym four times a week, was diagnosed with the incurable brain condition - which causes involuntary shaking - ten years ago.

He was forced to take four separate oral drugs six times a day to help control his tremors and had to give up his job as a top boss at a communications firm.

But in June, he became one of the first patients in England to be given Produodopa - a treatment administered via a portable pump under his skin.

And dramatic video revealed how Damian - who previously struggled to control his upper body movements - could easily make a cup of coffee just seven days later.
