Do Your PD Symptoms Disappear When You Are Sick?

Fairburn, GA

I am recently getting over a bad cold. I have noticed that when my body is fighting of a sickness unrelated to PD, my PD symptoms often disappear. Anyone else experience this strange/weird phenomena?

Hi Mathew I'm glad you're on the right side of the cold. I am considerably worse if I have a cold 😐 so that doesn't help !

I don’t get sick very often. I did have Coronavirus twice though. I didn’t notice any difference in my PD symptoms, but I had plenty to deal with at the time.
