My sister was diagnosed with PD a couple of months ago. I am just learning about the disease and how to be supportive. I am interested in the experience of other caregivers.

Hi @amadis - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Your sister is fortunate to have you in her life and for your willingness to support her with her Parkinson's disease diagnosis.

I'd suggest that this discussion in the Connect Parkinson's disease support group might be a good place for you to start, given your stated interests:

@amadis

On Connect, we have many caregivers of PD patients. I would like to invite @sillyblone, @jrwilli1, and @kaymirkes to this conversation, as they have loved ones with PD. How is your sister feeling? What are her most bothersome symptoms?
