Hello Anonymous,

Thank you for coming to us with your question regarding high stress levels and its impact on Parkinson's disease.

For the benefit of our readers, Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects your movement. It develops gradually, sometimes starting with a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand.

Though the reason is unknown, many individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease describe worsening of their symptoms such as tremors, slowness and difficulty walking when in stressful situations.

Hope this helps,
Maryann
