Default informal poll - motor vs non motor

I have got another informal poll for you all. There is a lot of focus on what are called non-motor symptoms of PD at the moment – they can included insomnia, constipation, sexual dysfunction, anxiety, pain, etc.

My question is, if you could ONLY have EITHER your motor symptoms cured, OR your non-motor symptoms cured, which would you choose?

This is a strictly either/or question – pretend you are taking one of those tests where you choose the answer by filling in the circle with your #2 pencil, and there are only two circles to choose from. If you are somewhere in the middle, please pick the answer to which you are closest.

Thanks!

addendum: and if you are willing, would you state the single symptom you would most like to be rid of? mine is bradykinesia.

my vote is for non-motor - specifically depression
