49 years old

Green is Green Bay's all-time leading rusher with 8,322 yards.

quote:

"Last year, I got diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's," Green told Dunne. "I had a little bit of the feet twitching when I'm in my sleep and stuff like that.

"I knew something was going on long before that. I just got a hold of some doctors that I was able to get in contact with. Get the diagnostics, get the testing. And finally got it tested last — it was January of 2025."


quote:

He said that in addition to twitching at night, he was dealing with short-term memory loss and walking and talking in his sleep. He said that his wife told him he'd been twitching in his sleep since shortly after his retirement from football in 2009.

He should get a DBS. Would help him.

Sounds like he has had Parkinsons for a long
time.

YOPD isn't as progressive as LOPD.

Dystonia and dyskensia caused by side effects from medication are common in YOPD.

He might not be a candidate for it.
