"I AM"- are the two most powerful words in the dictionary because the ending determines your destiny….so join me in my fight against PD to make sure that everyone who suffers from this chronic progressive degenerative disease can develop the courage to shout to the wind- I AM Fierce and Courageous ….

Very interesting. Thank you for sharing. I am a PD sufferer and I often have nasal congestion, mostly involving the left nasal cavity and sinuses especially the maxillary sinus. The drainage is all post nasal, not drip, more like sludge which I continuously swallow. My throat also is involved and I often expectorate the “frog” in my throat. Steroids and antibiotics help but the condition always returns. I saw an ENT doctor. He discovered polyps and thought that was the cause of the drainage problem. He prescribed a saline nasal rinse which I seldom use because it does not cure the problem, just alleviates symptoms. Another thing that is unusual: many times I feel a cold coming on and then it just disappears. It must be related to dopamine levels. I also suffer from vascular headaches in the left temporal area. They are like minor migraines. I often wake up with them. Sometimes they go away and sometimes they get worse and I have to take Sumatriptan to finally get relief. I get nasal congestion at the same time. The cause of both must be low levels of dopamine in the blood stream. I know what sinus headaches are like and I know what full blown migraine headaches are like as I used to get them when I was a kid. This condition is different. I have been wondering for years what was causing these seemingly unrelated symptoms that I have had for about 20 years. Now I know. Thank you Dr Maria. Robert Heston DVM
Thank you Robert. Hope you find relief soon by talking to doctor and adjusting meds. I too have migraines and I have found that cervical dystonia is and neck stiffness triggers migraines..increasing dopamine relieves this . But may also want to look at my blog on 3 serious causes of early am headaches …www.migraine.com
Happy holidays !
Thank you Maria.
