Reactions when you tell people you have Parkinson's Disease?

Has anyone experienced weight loss. I have lost about 30 lbs. I believe it could be because I have no appetite and sometimes just cannot eat and feel nauseated. My doctor wants to have my thyroid checked to make sure it's not over or under active. Anyone have similar experience?

@kar907 Yes. I went from 155# to 106# in a matter of months. Scary! All the doctors and all the tests said I was healthy. I forced myself to eat as much as often as I could to no avail. Finally found the right dr. and neuro and am now back to my preferred weight of 127#.

I have lost a bit of weight but find I am not really interested in food. Nothing tastes good.

I also have lost weight, maybe over 20 pounds. Most of the time eating has not been a problem but might have cut back a little. Considering my work energy has also reduced I think under "normal" times if anything my weight might have crept up some.
