Dementia made worse by PD medications?

[John Curtiss]

Anyone have experience with this? Can dementia can be caused or made worse
by taking Parkinsons medication?

Dementia is a disease of the aged and yet, not all old people get it.
Dementia is commonly experienced by patients suffering from Parkinsons and
yet, not all such patients get it. Its cause does not appear to be
understood by the medical profession.

I'm not in the medical profession and make no suggestions to you along those
lines. What I would suggest, however, is that there's a world of
information on both dementia and Parkinson's Disease available for you on
the Internet and you have only to go to google.com, punch in "Parkinson's
Disease", and that world will open up for you.

Good luck in your search for information.

Dementia can be caused by many things. Probably the most common is
small strokes. I don't know enough about Parkinson's to comment on
that. I would certainly recommend that you talk to the doctor about it.
