Understanding degenerative brain diseases to relieve patient's stress
In recent years there has been greater awareness of degenerative brain diseases. However, due to the similarity in symptoms, Dementia and Parkinson's disease are sometimes confused. Without carers' thorough understanding on both diseases, the patients may be easily misunderstood and suffer from greater emotional stress. 
 
Although these diseases cannot be cured completely, early detection and treatment can relieve the symptoms and provide a better quality of life on both patients and their carers.  It is important to recognise the difference between the two types of degenerative disease, so as to facilitate effective diagnosis and treatment.
