It seems that after being diagnosed with pd I've noticed significant muscle loss although I still workout with dumbbells and stationary bike ?

Not so much a weakness as it's more of a control problem with me. Strength is still there, but have problems with motor control mostly.

I think I forget that that I’m aging as well as dealing with Parkinson’s. Both are painful

I'm having some loss, but I blame age as a large part of it. I'm still active and do whatever I want to, but feel a difference just the same.
