Nausea
A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭

The last four months I have been struggling with severe nausea. It has really transformed my life. In fact, I think it’s taking away the quality of my life. I’m nauseated from the time I get up in the morning till the time I go to sleep. The only break I get is when I sleep. Does anybody else deal/have dealt with nausea? What do you do to help relieve the nausea?
