Overview
Natural History
The most common symptoms that a PD patient complains in his/her history are slowness of movement (bradykinesia), shaking hands while they are at rest (resting tremor) and muscle stiffness (rigidity).[1] It’s in the favor of PD diagnosis if the presenting symptoms start unilaterally and the severity of them remains higher in the side of onset.[2]
Complications
Prognosis
In one of the studies regarding PD prognosis, it was seen that the percent of dead or severely disabled patients is 25 percent within 5 years, 67 percent within 5 to 9 years and 80 percent within 10 to 14 years of disease onset.[3][4] It was also shown that disability will occurs mostly in 3 to 7 years of disease onset.[5]
