Hands and feet turn bright purple and later go white. Neuro, with many decades experience with PD, says he has seen it again and again with PWP but finds no mention of it anywhere in the literature, other docs do not confirm having seen that.

First direct question, "Do you have PD?" came from a long-time business friend who said I had started slurring my words and whispering in a droning monotone on the telephone. He told me that 10 years before diagnosis. His mother had it and he was sure I did too. He worked for a telephone company and had no medical background.
