The singer was diagnosed in February last year after a series of health problems such as the deadly infection and the fall that damaged his nervous system.
Osborne admitted that he felt guilty for hiding the diagnosis from their fans.
«I learned that I have a mild form… like this?» asked the singer of his wife Sharon during an interview.
«PRKN 2, which is a form of Parkinson’s disease», — she said.
«There are so many different types of Parkinson’s disease. It’s not a death sentence, but it affects certain nerves in your body. As if you had a good day, good day, and then a really bad day,» says the singer.
Osborne said he is experiencing other symptoms that can be caused by Parkinson’s disease.
«I have numbness down the arm after surgery; my feet were freezing, he said. I don’t know is Parkinson’s or something else, you know, but it’s… you know, that’s the problem. Because they cut the nerves when they did the operation. I’ve never heard of nerve pain, and it’s a strange feeling.»
Sharon said that in April Ozzy will meet with the Professor in Switzerland, so they can help to differentiate and distinguish the causes of his symptoms.
«We will go anywhere and look for answers,» she said. Ozzy added: «We are lucky that we can afford it».
According to the singer, after talking about the disease it was like a stone fell from the soul.
«I feel better now, because I already accepted the fact that I have Parkinson’s disease, he said. And I just hope that [my fans] will endure».
The musician has called on his fans to «air».
This spring, Osborne plans to return to USA to continue your tour No More Tours 2. The first show will be in Atlanta.
