Anyone notice a soft spot on the back of their head - near the base of their skull?

It never hurt but made me nervous. I was afraid I had a brain tumor. Then I got the PD diagnosis. Since taking PD meds it's gone. Advice please.

no, never noticed it in my husband. I do notice he's hyper-vigiliant, startles easily, worries a lot about things we've already discussed and settled, is fearful at time, but tries to cover it up.

The best thing is to do a 'reality check' with your doctor, family member, or here, as you are doing. My husband does reality checks with me all the time about things he thinks he sees. Reality and reassurance help get him back on track.

Sounds like another interesting manifestation of all things Parky. I swear people would blame their hang nail on their PD if it sounded reasonable to them at the time. No disrespect intended Quirkyme. Been there, done many stupid things until someone here made me accept myself and the PD.
