Dennis Riehle reported back after a longer hospital stay, stating that the examinations had shown that his Parkinson's syndrome was not due to a neurodegenerative process. A genetic cause had most likely been identified. The underlying disease impairs and damages the body's energy cells. Although it progresses more slowly than classical forms of Parkinson's, it affects multiple organs and is more difficult to treat, he wrote. Riehle described the most significant finding as a severe neurocognitive disorder, which he characterized as a form of dementia. In his case, it manifests primarily as difficulties in finding words and fluid speech. For about half a year, he has therefore found it harder to write texts. However, he wants to continue and keep posting on X – presumably less frequently and irregularly, but as much as possible in his usual style. #Parkinson #Gesundheit #Demenz (translated)
