Hi @Gaz1, thank you for your post. We hope you get some good advice from the community.
Usually, when you’re asleep, your body will be in a state of “atonia”, which stops you from moving. But changes in the brain due to Parkinson’s may disrupt this process, so you may act out your dreams while you’re asleep. You can find out more about this and ways to manage it on our website here: Sleep problems | Parkinson's UK
We also have a free, confidential helpline on 0808 800 0303 you can call to speak with one of our specialists who can answer your questions and offer you the advice you need.
Please take care and reach out if there is anything we can do.
