Hi @A MyParkinsonsTeam Member. That doesn't sound like fun at all!
I googled your symptoms and came up with this: https://www.michaeljfox.org/foundation/news-det...
Check it out then have a discussion with your neurologist or Parkinson's nurse to review your meds.
Also drink more water.
Good luck! and hugs.

Yes you to stay active plus my doctor told me to drink Miramax or I picked up Clearllax in Wal-Mart's by mistake it is good to cheaper check with your doctor.
I have to use every morning with orange juice. It helps alot. I was told I cannot have chocolate or peppermint or any spice foods.

Parkinson's causes you to have constipation. I eat a homemade granola with a tsp of flaxseed flour". I try to keep active". All seems to help.

Constipation is common with Parkinson's. I eat granola and a tsp. Of flaxseed meal as a cereal with Almond milk or with yogurt. That seems to help me. Walking or exercising help also.
