Wiggling, writhing, jerky or slow dance-like movements. These are commonly seen in Parkinson’s, but they are not a symptom of the disease. Dyskinesias are a side-effect of medication and while they do affect many people, there are a significant number of people despite prolonged use of medications, who never develop them. Join us for a conversation with Oscar Gershanik, MD as we discuss the clinical features, pathogenesis and treatment options for levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
Parkinson & Movement Disorder Alliance is a nonprofit organization providing people with Parkinson's and other movement disorders as well as their care partners opportunities to learn, live life more fully and connect with other. We believe you are MORE than a disease!
