Episode description

Have you ever felt completely exhausted or fatigued during the day? Does this happen frequently? Not sleepy but totally fatigued or tired. Well, this could be one of those non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease or a medication side effect or something else. Either way, it is really annoying and can affect our quality of life.

We discuss fatigue with an expert on the topic during this episode. He tells us what science has discovered about the causes of fatigue and what has yet to be learned. Listen to find out the difference between fatigue and sleepiness as well as possible treatments and lifestyle changes that may help. We tried to keep the conversation lively, so no one gets bored and nods off during this episode.
