    Author: Toda K, Harada T, Ishizaki F, Horie N, Yamada T.
    Journal: Parkinsonism Relat Disord; 2007 Jul; 13(5):312-4. PubMed ID: 16828328.
    Abstract:
    Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by motor disturbances such as tremor, slow movement and rigidity. Also, pain is a common symptom in patients with PD. The prevalence of pain is 40-75% in patients with PD. Physicians should pay attention to pain in patient with PD. We report a PD patient who suffered from fibromyalgia (FM). If the amount of pain is not maximal in the side more affected by parkinsonism and pain is not markedly relieved when the patient is in the "on" state, the pain may be due to FM.
