Yes, experiencing moments where you go blank during a conversation can be related to Parkinson's disease (PD). Many people with PD report similar symptoms, such as freezing mid-sentence or experiencing "brain fog." This can be frustrating and embarrassing, but it's a common issue among those with PD. Memory problems and cognitive decline are part of the disease, affecting memory retrieval and causing difficulties in recalling specific events or details during conversations.

Here are some tips shared by others with PD:
- Be honest and upfront about your memory issues.
- Use memory aids like dictionary and thesaurus apps.
- Seek support from others with PD to learn strategies for managing memory function.

Remember, you're not alone, and many people with PD face similar challenges.
