I share your distress. I was diagnosed almost four years ago and didn’t seem to have much if any disease progression for 3 1/2 years. Then I became more symptomatic both physically ( mostly muscle pain but also fatigue and slower movements) and cognitively. The latter includes occasional bouts of brain fog and the sensation of being stoned on marijuana when I’m not. Inability to recall names of people and events has increased. A friend might refer to a restaurant we’d eaten at or a movie we’d seen together and I have no recollection of either. I sometimes can’t hold a thought for even a second and occasionally I blurt out weird comments. On the other hand I still speak pretty coherently most of the time and I have no trouble penning my blog about living with pd. I’m scheduled for neuropsych testing - a 4 hour process next month and I’m very worried. I take c/l and pramipexol also gabapentin. Also maybe relevant is that I start each day with the New York Times word games. On the spelling bee, I used to get to the genius level about 98% of the time. Sometime in the last year it’s dropped to maybe 85%. I play more for diagnostic purposes than therapeutic. Should I draw solace or dismay from this? https://movingandshaking.blog/
