To all: Me too. Occasional tightness in chest, but no heart problems. It is not the same tightness that occurs with asthma either, with which I am all too familiar. Since my only PD medication is a dopamine agonist in an open label clinical trial, it may not address the chest tightness. My trial medicine may actually be the same one described in Murray Charters' post today: see "Research to Address Symptoms of Early Parkinson's Disease"??? I have been on this medicine for about 15 months. Nancy P. >Dear Emily, >Yes I did have tightness in the chest before being DX with PD then meds seem >to help.
