A member asked:
Could parkinson's disease affect the mind?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You bet it could: We term this parkinsonian dementia, and it is very different from alzheimer's disease, and often occurs late in the course, but ultimately about 70% of all patients will display some cognitive issues.
