Default Did your sense of smell weaken before onset of Parkinson's?
Some research indicates that the loss of dopaminergic neurons can first present as a loss of smell and this can possibly be an early warning sign in the progression of Parkinson's.

Please let us know whether you sensed a diminishing ability to smell before your Parkinson's was diagnosed.
