For the first time ever last Night I had Parkinsons in my dream - more advanced than I am at the moment.
In all my other dreams I have never experienced this and would rather not again. However, it gave me an insight into how others may feel and was not pleasant. Have no idea why this happened.
All the dreams I`ve had since I was diagnosed, some very vivid, I`ve never had Parkinsons in them......Interesting thought though, thanks for posting
No, this is what I meant. I have very vivid dreams but even though they are in the present, I never have Parkinsons. The one I am referring to included my mother who died many years ago and I definitely had later stage Parkinsons.
Think my mind must be playing tricks on me, but this dream has been with me all day. It was actually more like a nightmare and every time I woke up, when I went back to sleep it started again where it had left off.
Must be a message there somewhere!!!
I have had PD for 15+ years and I have never had PD during my dreams. In fact, i am usually more like Superman in my dreams. I can fly and I am very healthy. I am a great believer that dreams mean something. They may even be messages from spirit guides. I record dreams that seem significant in a dream journal. You may want to start keeping one.
I also believe that dreams carry a message. If so, what is my spirit guide trying to tell me, apart from frightening the life out of me?
I'm not sure. I am convinced that when we make choices based on intuition, those feelings are messages from our spirit guides. I have received strong feelings to take a different route than normal, for example, only to learn later that if I drove my normal route I would have probably been involved in an accident.
Twelve years with PD.... I have had dreams with my real capacities.
I too have very vivid dreams and am symptom free - its really quite nice.
nope - i have necer had adream where i had or didnt have pd - i have stupid non sensical dreams thart stay wuth me all night
Therapists will tell you that many dreams come through our own subconscious helping us deal with things we have a hard time with during our waking hours. ..
.But when Parkinsons meds kick in, they seem to affect the way we dream. It is a documented fact that many medications cause vivid, wild dreams that are more hallucinations than the effort of the mind to work things out during REM sleep.
It is up to the individual to determine whether the dream has any significance, or if it was just a trip to Wonderland- orchestrated by medication
I have great dreams (wish I could record them) but never with PD ....until last night after I read this question!
Hello - in my dreams, I am healthy and vibrant. Lately, I wake after an exhausting night of sex. Maybe I have a ghost? or hallucinating?
During the first month or so, when I was having the test carbo/levadopa to decide if I really had PD, as my regular extremely vivd dreams I was shaking and rotating, spinning really, and it was with PD, I could really do anything in the dream because I was tremoring so bad. Much much worse than I have ever been.. I had 2 different dreams, since then I don't remember any PD dreams. How ever I'll take what 070310 is taking.
My dreams are always very pleasant, and never can remember them when I wake up. But I'm very happy, perfectly normal. It's when you wake up and realize that you're not in that dream, and you just sort of ache all over.
Does anyone have hallucinations from their PD meds.
Does anyone else have issues with their eyes because of PD
Does anyone else have problems sweating?!
Pain in parkinsons
