    Understanding ON/OFF
    Sep 19 2026

    In this episode of 2 Parkies in a Pod, we’re talking about one of the most frustrating and sometimes confusing parts of living with Parkinson’s - ON and OFF periods.

    What does it actually mean to be “ON”? What does being “OFF” feel like? And why can Parkinson’s symptoms sometimes seem to change throughout the day?

    We’re joined by Professor Camille Carroll, Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at Newcastle University, whose work focuses on Parkinson’s, personalised care, digital monitoring and motor fluctuations, including “wearing-off.”

    Please remember that the podcast is not a substitute for individual medical advice. If you’re experiencing changes in your Parkinson’s symptoms or medication response, speak to your Parkinson’s team or healthcare professional.

    Having witnessed her younger brother being diagnosed with Parkinson’s at the age of just 20, Anne had seen Parkinson’s first hand - but in a cruel twist of fate she was herself diagnosed more than 30 years later. How they have both dealt with their diagnosis is a truly inspiring story.

    Listen in for a powerful conversation about family, resilience, exercise, friendship and finding a positive way forward with Parkinson’s.

    I don’t have Parkinson’s after all
    Aug 15 2026


    What happens when you’re told you have Parkinson’s — and years later, you’re told you don’t?

    Mike Bells talks about the first signs, how the diagnosis affected both him and those around him, and the impact the Parkinson’s medication had. Then came the shock.. Mike was de-diagnosed almost a decade later.

    Mike opens up about what it felt like to discover the news and what life looks like now.

    Plus, Dave hits 60… and Kuhan gets back behind the wheel!

Informative and uplifting podcast about suviving and thriving with Parkinson's. The presenters are really good at letting others speak and tell their story.

Enjoyable uplifting podcast

I don't have Parkinson's but my husband does. I probably listen more than he does, I think he doesn't want to "think about PD all the time", but I feel that information is key on this journey. I learned about you on Movers and Shakers, which I thought was brilliant till I discovered your podcast: they have now been downgraded (sorry guys). I find your approach more universal and enjoyable. You tackle difficult subjects with empathy and grace. Thank you, please keep going, you are shining a light into some dark corners. It is important and it helps. One of the most important things that you do is the highlighting of things that amazing Parky warriors are achieving every day. For anyone out there who has just discovered that they have Parkinson's, and feel that their lives are now ruined and blighted, you are bringing heroes into view and demonstrating that life can actually go on and be fun, that there is more to life than Levodopa and loss.
