Default Question
I noticed today that I have dystonia now in my left hand. Supposedly I have viral parkinsonism.

Does this mean I have Parkinson's rather than parkinsonism?

When did your doctors settle on that diagnosis, viral parkinson's? Secondary Dystonia is a symptom of PD or parkinsonism.

How did they come up with viral pd? Did you have meningitis?
