Hi everyone,
I'm not really sure why I'm posting, other than that I don't think it's healthy to keep googling/reading about PD and wanted to do something different.
My dad has advanced YOPD. I'm 32 now. For the past couple of months I've noticed that my right hand and outer arm are numb on and off. The outside of my right foot is the same. When I'm standing I notice that my little toe and the two next to it on my right foot curl under and are uncomfortable. My right hand feels stiff and cold sometimes, but this comes and goes and doesn't last long. I have no slowness/stiffness really, other than that my left leg feels 'tighter'- but I can't really explain it. I've always had a fine tremor but it seems much worse in my right foot and hand recently- I've shown people who all agree. It's not a resting tremor though.
Weirdly I keep having random twitches throughout my entire body but particularly my left upper eyelid.
I think there's a good chance I'm starting with Parkinson's. But I have a toddler and can't even begin to think about how I would deal with it/how our lives would be. I know I need to go and see my GP but I'm too scared. I feel like I've became so anxious about it all that I dont even know what's real and what's in my head anymore.
Have any of you had these symptoms? It definitely started with the pins and needles/numbness in my right arm.
Thanks x
