isanyone affected by sudden sharp noises if my dog barks suddenly it feels like someones hit me
Yes, I feel you on thIs one. When my dogs bark it can hit me the same way. I was never ear sensitive as I am now but wow can it be bad at times. The stupid ways this PD affects people is a bitch.

Yes, at times sudden noises - especially loud or sharp - make me flinch when they wouldn't have in the past. Is it PD or meds? Does it matter? I worked with children with severe learning difficulties for many years who exhibited the same behaviour. Does that signify? Probably not.
Yes i startle easily. I understand it to be another PD symptom.
I've noticed my hearing is sensitive and I sometimes jump when I think theres going to be a loud noise,, am I mad or what?
but I didn't think for a moment it was meds or pd,the symptoms,side effects etc list is so long I don't have room to add any more...
this has even given me tourettes,,just another feckin part of this sh.t we have to live with..my apologies for feckin swearin' I know it's not lady like,,so feck it! Lots of luv & hugs to you all - for understanding!!!!
I just noticed lately that I startle easily. I never connected it to the disease. What next? Please don't tell me I don't want to know.
Yes I jump over every little noise. My husband said I jump all night for no reason at all. The doctor has never told me I have PD but this all has just started. I go back next month.
Yes. HEaring is more acute. I had the sensation you describe when I was on Mirapex/Requip. Sense of smell however is dwindling (sniff, sniff)
I have been wondering why my grandchildren seem so loud, and it bothers me. I use to love to hear them. I don't say anything because I know it is not their fault.
My smell is almost gone.
I jump at sudden noises - something falling on the floor, someone dropping something. I jump if I hit something like dish on a table or just hitting the table I never used to do this. Loud sudden noises are bad.
