Has anyone had or heard of the side effect from this being lucid dreaming and excessive talking in sleep?

@dedhambeth - this is a discussion on Mayo Clinic Connect about vivid dreams and Parkinson's you may want to check out:

@dedhambeth

It is common to have sleep problems as well as vivid dreams for patients with PD. I have often awakened feeling tired from all the activity in my dreams. The Davis Phinney Foundation Website is a great place to learn about living with PD. Here is a link to articles and webinars about sleep problems associated with PD: https://davisphinneyfoundation.org/

Have you mentioned this problem to your doctor?
