Some days the hardest part is explaining to people why you look fine but feel terrible. You're not making it up. Your symptoms are real, your fatigue is real, and you deserve support. #ChronicIllness #InvisibleIllness #Spoonie

Chronic noise exposure may do more than harm your hearing. New research linked repeated loud sound to dopamine neuron death and movement issues in mice, offering insight into how environmental noise could contribute to Parkinson’s disease. Read more: bit.ly/3Xhya5f

Chronic Noise Exposure Led to Parkinson's Disease Symptoms in Mice | The Scientist
Noise as loud as 85 to 100 decibels over time led to irreversible motor defects and loss of dopamine neurons in a mouse model of pre-symptomatic Parkinson’s disease.

Foreground, a very dry shrub sits right in frame (our drought continues) Small chunks of bedrock line the sea, wee islands of separation.
