About Sharon Krischer

I’m Sharon

Welcome to Twitchy Woman.

I started Twitchy Woman as a way to exchange ideas and solutions with other whose lives have been affected. It has been recognized by Everyday Health, Healthline, Stanford University and more as one of the top Parkinson’s blogs to follow. Each month I host a free Zoom webinar exclusively for other “Twitchy Women” with Parkinson’s Disease.

Feel free to explore the site – there are goodies on every page to help you live your best life with Parkinson’s Disease.
