I've had a few incidences of Pisa syndrome at night when getting up for bathroom. Leaning to the right, I couldn't straighten up until after I sat down on the toilet. It didn't dawn on me then, or maybe I was too sleepy, but reading about the tower of Pisa syndrome in Parkinson's got me questioning. Has anyone else experienced it at night before it progressed to more definite leaning during the daytime?

Yes, another disconcerting Parkinsonism.
Acceptance is the key...... Just change your name to Eileen!
Kidding of course..... PD is relentless. Sometimes I just say “it is what it is”
I had a friend named Eileen and remembered her name by picturing her leaning. It worked. Does it start out at night in short bouts because it doesn't happen during the day...thankfully? Also read it happens in those of us with axial symptoms. Mine are all axial except the occasional stiff twisting leg from dystonia.
