In addition to being diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease 8 years ago, I had polio, as a child, and now have post-polio syndrome. I have to deal with atrial fibrillation, severe osteoarthritis, fatty liver disease, hypertension, epilepsy, severe migraines, peripheral neuropathy, anaemia, supraventricular tachycardia, and who knows what else! I’m at the point now, that I am reluctant to go to my annual physical, for fear the Dr. may find something else!

@foundryrat743, we have a few things in common: fibrillation, osteo arth., migraines, epilepsy, peri.neuropathy, tachycardia (fixed it with a ventricular ablation. very easy, very fast).
Your What Else is intriguing..My list goes on: Raynaud"s, rosacea, major vision problems like blurry eyesight, drooping eyelid, depth perception probs, chronic back pain with spine abnormalities ...yes, about a zillion other things, constipation/diahrrea, you know, the typical batch of 'non-motor symptoms' that you have to go to scores of specialists for treatment.
I just keep finding people who have the same bunch of shared ailments. Wondering if there's some connection to the PD.
Some time, visit Mayo" other groups, like neuropathy, migraine, pain...you'll see stuff that mmakes you yell Me too!! and waant to tell them it's not what-ever, it's PD. Just saying...
