My "PD" is modulated by:
Norepinehrine loss in CNS. Amantadine helps.
Dysautonomia (ANS pathologies). Eg, elevated norepinephrine in periphery.
Midface hypoplasia (eg, severe malocclusion, high arched palate). Also, I've come to believe: distorted development of my insular cortices and interconnected neural tissues.
