    Primary symptoms of Parkinson's disease are related to voluntasry and involuntsry motor function and usually start on one side of the body.  Symptoms are mild at first and will progress over time.  Symptoms are:


    Trembling in fingers, hands, arms, feet, legs, jaw or head.  Tremors most often occur while the individual is sitting, but not while involved in a task.  Tremors may worsen when an individual is excited, tired or stressed.


    Stiffness of the limbs and trunk which may increase during movement.  Rigidity may produce muscle aches and pain.


    Slowness of voluntary movement.


    Impaired or lost reflexs can make it difficulot to adjust posture to maintain balance.  Postural instability may lead to fall.

    one of the most common signs are reduced arm swing on one side while walking, overly tired as well as diffculty getting up out of a chair!

    Go to this website Parkinson-Wikipedia the free encyclopedia plenty of info.
