Is this a central nervous system disease process or a circulatory system disease process? Or both (Can it be both)?

If it's alcohol related, it's due to a vitamin B1 deficiency.

Ugh, watched PPS destroy any quality of life that my mom could have had in her last years and now watching it decimate my father who has always been an active man. Vaccinate your kids, folks.
