Default "PD & Sleep" Huffington Post

"A study from Denmark's Center for Healthy Ageing and the Danish Center for Sleep Medicine, among other places, explains how dreams may hold the clue that people may be on track to develop Parkinson's. Researchers found that one of the earliest symptoms of Parkinson's may be a REM sleep disorder known as REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD). "

This highly active dreaming can appear up to eight years before the onset of other symptoms of Parkinson's, so researchers are eager to see if they can use this to help patients before the disease becomes too severe.
