It's the autonomic system. Is there anything I can do for this symptom. Could I have a heat stroke?

For at home I put a u-shaped, ice filled pack around my neck...helps a lot. I avoid spicy foods too. Two bites of anything with jalapenos in it will make my head sweat for hours. Haven't figured out what to do in public yet. I might just say the heck with it and bring my u-shaped ice pack.

I’m not sure about heat stroke, but I also have the same issue. Just the slightest exertion and the sweat starts pouring off me, and it takes a long time to cool off.

In atypical PD many autonomic symptoms appear such as orthostatic hypertension and the regulation of body temperature. There are many types of atypical so research gets really confusing. I found that PD Movement Disorder Neurologists treat under PD diagnosis because that's where the research money is available.
