Health Day reports that a patient's bike-riding ability may distinguish between having "regular" Parkinson's disease and having atypical Parkinsonism. If you suffer from a debilitating medical condition that severely limits your functioning abilities, then you could be entitled to Social Security disability benefits.
Along with other diagnostic testing, one simple question asking if a patient is able to ride a bike could help in determining whether a patient is suffering from symptoms of Parkinson's disease or atypical Parkinsonism.
Those who have Parkinson's are generally able to ride a bike well, while those with atypical Parkinsonism experience difficulty. Although researchers don't believe it provides a definitive answer, it can help guide toward a conclusive diagnosis.
A study done in Japan was able to demonstrate the outcome of this question, however, it is still unknown if the ability to ride a bike would apply to other types of riding environments or countries.
Parkinson's can severely impact an individual's quality of life, making it impossible to work. If you have questions concerning eligibility of disability benefits or if your claim for benefits was denied, then you should seek legal counsel. A Florida disability attorney can help with all aspects of your claim and answer any questions you may have.
