Parkinsons-dementia

My wife has Parkinsons-dementia. If someone has experience with this would I like your input. She does not have tremors but has stiffness and rigidity. She can't walk or stand without assistance.
I would appreciate any feedback that can help me better understand and prepare for the future.

  1. Hi @Lpcccc, while you're waiting for feedback from the community, I thought you might be interested in some information from our sister site , Parkinsonsdisease.net. You can find a list of articles related to PD dementia here: https://parkinsonsdisease.net/search?s=dementia, and information related to rigidity here: https://parkinsonsdisease.net/search?s=rigidity. I hope that helps! -Warmly, Donna (team member)

      1. Follow up: also posted in the forum discussing PD and AD. Perhaps you two would like to connect!

        1. The doctor has determined that she doesn't have parkinsons. He tried two different medications with no positive impact. He is still trying to determine what to look for next.
