What are the common symptoms that show that your dopamine levels are off?

Parkinsonism: Dopamine levels are not measured and therefore there is no "off." parkinson's disease is a disease in which there is a deficiency of Dopamine in specific cells in the brain. This disease produces parkinsonism - riidty, postural instability, resting tremor and bradykinesia.

Low dopamine: In men, low Dopamine levels (like low testosterone) can decrease bone density, sex drive, physical endurance, & muscle mass. May also increase cholesterol levels & body fat. Low Dopamine levels may indicate onset of parkinson's or adhd. People with fibromyalgia & chronic fatigue syndrome generally have low Dopamine levels as well.
