(00:58:16): Can non-motor symptoms be related to ON/OFF time?
Many non-motor symptoms (symptoms that you can’t see) are commonly associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD) including depression, constipation, and problems with blood pressure regulation. However, PD can also involve a range of lesser-known non-motor symptoms that often receive less attention and are not often talked about.
On the next Dr. Gilbert Hosts, we will be joined by Movement Disorders Specialist Dr. D. Campbell Dewey to explore these often-overlooked symptoms, discuss how they can affect people with PD, and talk about ways to combat them to improve how you’re feeling.
Some of the symptoms that we will be discussing include:
- Runny nose
- Pain
- Weight loss
- Visual problems
- And others!.
