Default you retain your intelligence

John - I'd love to hear the results of your tests.

"Bradyphrenia" (slow thinking) is a symptom of PD; your brain does slow down just as the rest of you does. Maybe the key is just realizing that, and trying to do things at a different pace.

It's a tough one; really hard to adjust to when you've been super confident/competent and fast for your whole life! Remember - you are not losing your intelligence!
