7-Insomnia
It is common for Parkinson’s disease patients to have 5 hours of sleep or even less. They usually suffer from a condition named sleep apnea, a common disorder where the patient stops breathing while he’s asleep and wakes up snoring. Additionally, it is highly likely they will need to wake up in the middle of the night to take a leak. As we will see further, Parkinson patients may also suffer from depression, a condition that is also associated with sleep deprivation.
