    Hi Ally I have a Great Dane and Australian Shepherd. I have to walk them even when tired or having back pain. If not, my Dane, Bleu vocalizes until I do. It snaps me out of my pity party every time.

    I believe the shots work and will definitely get the new shot which covers more strains when it comes out.

    Yes I struggle with hot flashes as well as feeling so uneasy in the heat. It also makes me feel weak. I just have to sit down. I am also sensitive to cold and also don’t like waiting for the shower to get hot. It’s like that Goldilocks syndrome where it needs to be just right. I also noticed when I feel weak my blood pressure drops a lot. So frustrating!

    Hi everyone I had severe anxiety before I was diagnosed with PD. I actually retired early because of it. I try to be mindful and make myself happy as well as taking Paxil and Ativan when needed. Luckily that is not very often.

    Hi Ally, I had diminished sense of smell years before I was diagnosed and always thought it was allergies. Sometimes I would smell scents like chemicals which others were not smelling. I think the research is a good idea.

    Yes, I get terrible hot flashes. If it is hot it’s worse when it’s hot. I also get a feeling of being weak also. Just have to sit or lay down.
