Has anyone had nosebleeds with Parkinsons? I bleed very little but I am not sure if it is related to the disease or its medications I am currently taking Sinemet, Amantadine and siliguine (probably spelled it wrong ) thank you!

Are you taking other meds? Blood pressure meds, aspirin, St. John's wort..... I have not heard of PD causing nose bleeds, you need to discuss with your GP.
I think it's from a sinus infection. I seem to blame everything on the Parkinsons! )
Hi Hoffman 123.
I had 5 severe blood noses a few mths after my dx. I think mine was related to dry air from gas heating (during winter). Now i add water to the heater's tray to humidify the air. No blood noses after that.
As with most things, we never really know !!!
Thank you Deat for your reply!
I don't have parkinsons but my husband has . I get a very dry nose and if I touch it ,pick it it will bleed heavily "
I remembered that they use to tell you to smear Vaseline inside the nostril . Since doing so I have had no problems . That's is unless I forget to do so
The veins near the front of the nose are very close to the surface and it doesn't take much to get a nosebleed going. I used to notice when we went back east to visit my mother-in-law in NY, she would have a teacup every so many feet on the radiator. She said she filled them with water to keep the air moist. So I started doing that too although I used much bigger containers. It helped slow down my kids' nosebleeds I think -- except those acquired in the play yard from fly-away balls!
I just took one pill today of Amantadine and had a nose bleed. Have not had a nosebleed in 30 years. Certainly the drug without a doubt and thank you for sharing!
