    I'm not a doctor but I have a daughter with MS.I understand that the symptoms of MS & parkinsons are very similar.Tiredness is definately a major symptom of MS. When my daughter was still able to walk she became very weary very quickly & often would fall asleep as soon as she sat down.If you are the Parkinson's sufferer asking this question,try to get plenty of rest.All the best wishes to you.

    a lot of that has to do with the meds they're taking too.

    Not in the case of our daughter.The only meds she has ever had have been steroids to boost her up & prevent the tiredness.However..as I said,I'm no doctor.I only know what we have been battling for nearly 20 years now & there is not a lot I don't know about MS.Parkinson's may be a whole 'nuther kettle of fish.

    Thank you Ducky.You're a treasure.

    It sounds like you have Myesthenia Gravis. That can prevent you from keeping one or both eyes open. None of the people I took care of,as an LPN , that had Parkinsons had trouble keeping their eyes open
