I didn't realize pain was part of parkinsons. I have pd and I have chronic pain. My pain is in areas where I have orthopedic problems stemming from car accident, but in other areas where I am just plain stiff. I too wake up in morning barely able to roll off the bed without screaming in pain. I am on pain medication daily and feel terrible that I need to take it, but the alternative is not pleasant. I would rather reduce my pain as best I can. Why suffer unnecessarily. I guess now have something else I can blame on parkinsons. It's amazing how many areas in your body are affected by parkinsons.
