  My father had Parkinson’s, it paralyzed him. He had most the symptoms you described but was never diagnosed with Parkinson’s till in one day he could not move , eat, nor talk, then a neurologist diagnosed him after which I learned it ran in our family thru great grandfathers an distant cousins but not our down line then all these symptoms which seemed to be separate, all made sense, he should have been treated for Parkinson’s years ago but was not, he even had tremors in his hands at one point, then it stoped? Till he was not able to move, talk, in one day, he lived for four years after that day, as his caretaker it would have been nice to have a support group an doctors that understand his disease, it still upsets me now when I watch an learn how much info is now available an how my dad could have been helped better instead of dealing with stuff that just happened in a day without any warning. The medical field really need to get it together so ppl do not fall through the cracks an miss valuable treatment. Such as my dad. An he was a welder as if that did not increase the chances of Parkinson’s. I only wish I knew then what I know now.

  I can relate.  I still don't have an official diagnosis despite suffering for over two decades and having million-dollar strokes after Unofficial COVID at 40 in 2023.  I had tremors in 2013, which went away.  I can't even get my excessive daytime drowsiness medications!  Very fed up!  Tying to  seeParkimnson's doctors buappoinyments are months away.

  Once again, this is Dave Olsen you talk on the nonmotor symptoms was very good. I got a lot of insight. Thank you so much for all that you do. I asked the question recently right above this one and I hope you can give me an answer. Thank you so so much. It’s nice to hear that people are thinking of us, this is life-threatening but it’s extremely annoying and it affects me every day. Thanks again for all that you do.

  Thanks  so much for your  support! Sometimes, I feel  very overwhelmed with this illness.  My sister  told me today, I  should  stop feeling  sorry for  myself! I  wish,  see could  live  one day  in my life! Have a blessed weekend.
