RECOGNIZING SYMPTOMS: INSIGHTS FROM RYAN REYNOLDS AND PD ADVOCATES
Why hallucinations and delusions often go unreported
Even though about 50% of people living with Parkinson's disease may experience hallucinations and/or delusions over the course of their disease, discussing these symptoms never seems to get any easier. Hear directly from people living with Parkinson's and a care partner. Learn why so many struggle to speak up and what's really going on in their minds.
For me, it's when Parkinson's-related hallucinations and delusions become a safety issue. For example, when someone accuses their loved one of something like an affair and becomes extremely accusatory. That's where the shift is and when things start to affect the entire family.”
—Dr. Brillman, physician, advocate
