So far I haven’t met anyone else with PD who does.

I don't take Azilect(or Cobeneldopa) and as far as I know none of my meds cause crying or laughing/

I cry when I am happy and when sad even if it's nothing. Way too emotional.

To @A MyParkinsonsTeam Member: You and I are two peas in a pod :) Every national anthem chokes me up; people singing in church will do it (I admire people who were blessed with a great set of singing "pipes"); and when my BB team (6th grade girls) recite a prayer before each game, the tears come as well.....A little embarrassing, but I've learned to deal with it. The opposite is laughing at inappropriate times, and that hasn't happened yet, so I'll take the tears in these instances :)

Happens to me a lot (choking and tearing up) at the stupidest things. Its called "emotional incontinence". I was told it happens with PD, but it's more prevalent with atypical PD, and that scares the hell out of me. My MDS has mentioned atypical PD to me, but she isn't ready to pull the trigger on that diagnosis just yet. If/when I start falling, I know the dx of PSP is just around the corner.....
