Parkinson’s Disease and Acting Out Your Dreams (Ask the MD Podcast)


Listen Later

We all dream when we sleep. Some don’t remember dreams. Others clearly recall what they did, how they felt, and who else was there. Still others unintentionally act out their dreams. They may imagine catching a touchdown pass, running from a wild animal, or fending off an enemy. In this episode, our on-staff movement disorder specialist speaks with a couple about their experience with acting out dreams, called REM sleep behavior disorder.

If you or your bed partner act out your dreams — whether you have Parkinson’s or not — you can play a critical role in research. Join the study that could change everything at michaeljfox.org/podcast-ppmi
