I am Orce Dimitrov from Kratovo. I experienced the first symptoms of the disease in Italy in 2008. At the end I started to notice that I feel malaxed, my right shoulder started to shake involuntarily and my left leg started to drag.

The healing process in Macedonia was very slow.

My doctor referred me for physical therapy because of the leg dragging. The physiotherapist delivered a note in which it was indicated that the patient was being treated for a motor stroke, and the patient was transferred to the neurology department in Skopje.

Due to the slow process of diagnosis of the disease, the process of treatment was allowed to continue in R. Slovenia and R. Serbia. The results of the trials in R. Slovenia showed that Parkinson's disease is working. On the recommendation of the doctors in R. Slovenia, the therapy continued to be implemented in R. Macedonia. I buy some of the medicines that I administer in Macedonia and some of them I get from Germany, because they are not available here.

The additional tests that I had to do in R. Macedonia were slow and difficult. For some of the tests I had to wait for months to do them. Because of this, I returned to the Republic of Slovenia to do the necessary tests. I have paid for these crumbs, around the trips to the Republic of Slovenia, the tests and the tremendas that were transcribed for me, with my own funds.

After more than ten years of treatment, specialist doctors from the Republic of Macedonia and the Republic of Slovenia have explained that all the possibilities for treatment in the Republic of Slovenia are very difficult.Macedonia is exhausted and further treatment should be continued in the country, where surgical treatment with deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease should be done, which is not done in R. Macedonia.

The necessary tests that should be done before the operational phase will be done in Slovenia with own funds. Having exhausted all possible financial means and the Health Fund not covering the costs of the surgery, I need financial means to continue with the treatment.

Due to the illness I am daily confronted with various problems and difficulties. In the morning, I have to take the therapies first, so that, with the help of my wife, I can start to move around a little bit and work out the physiological requirements. Sometimes I can move with the help of an orthopaedic aid, and when I cannot move my legs, I move with a wheelchair. In the course of the day, I have unfortunately been experiencing pain in my feet, which often causes me to fall and I have several injuries, including damage to the anterior column.

Apart from Parkinson's disease, I also suffer from disc herniation, scoliosis, depression and anxiety, angina pectoris.
