  • Why Are My Legs Swelling?

    Why Are My Legs Swelling?
    Oct 19 2026

    Swollen feet or ankles may not seem connected to Parkinson’s - however, sometimes there is a connection.

    In this week’s Pearls for Parkinson’s, “Why Are My Legs Swelling?”, we talk about how reduced movement can contribute to swelling, which Parkinson’s medications may play a role, and simple strategies that may help.

    Most importantly, we cover when leg swelling shouldn't be assumed to be Parkinson’s and needs medical attention.

    Listen for practical tips and signs to watch for.

  • Medication Timing Matters

    Medication Timing Matters
    Oct 12 2026

    With Parkinson’s medication, when you take it can matter almost as much as remembering to take it.

    This week on Pearls for Parkinson’s, we're talking about “Medication Timing Matters.”

    We cover keeping levodopa on schedule, when protein may affect how well it works, why iron deserves some attention, and how tracking when your medication kicks in and wears off can help your provider better understand your day.

    Small changes in awareness can help you get more from your medication routine.

  • When Parkinson's Gets Worse

    When Parkinson's Gets Worse
    Oct 5 2026

    A sudden increase in Parkinson’s symptoms doesn't always mean the disease has progressed.

    Illness, infection, dehydration, medication disruptions, and other medical problems can temporarily make Parkinson’s symptoms much more noticeable.

    This week on Pearls for Parkinson’s, we talk about “When Parkinson’s Gets Worse” and why a sudden change should make us investigate further.

    Learn what to watch for and why getting back to baseline may start with finding the underlying cause.
