US EditionTerry Crews’ wife reveals she’s been secretly battling Parkinson’s for over a decade
- On Monday, April 6, singer and fashion designer Rebecca King-Crews, wife of actor Terry Crews, publicly revealed her Parkinson's disease diagnosis on the 'Today' show. She disclosed living with the condition since 2015.
- Following symptoms starting in 2012, King-Crews endured a three-year diagnostic journey before receiving her formal Parkinson's diagnosis in 2015. Previous doctors initially suspected anxiety rather than the neurodegenerative condition.
- The FDA-approved MR-guided focused ultrasound procedure uses targeted sound waves to address tremor-linked brain areas. Employing the Exablate Neuro system, the treatment allowed her to write with her right hand for the first time in three years.
- Recovery from the procedure spans three months, with King-Crews expecting continued symptom improvement during this period. She plans a second ultrasound procedure in September to address remaining tremor symptoms on the left side of her body.
- Aiming to make the expensive surgery more accessible, King-Crews is advocating for broader insurance coverage. She stated, "I believe that we're going to find the cure," emphasizing the treatment's role in providing hope to others with Parkinson's.
