This is common in PD and I would recommend physical and occupational therapy as well as medication optimization. Some people benefit from placing their feet farther back before trying to arise, and also using chairs with arms!

    Not all patients have cold hands and feet with PD. I think the most important thing is to remember that PD affects the autonomic nervous system and this may explain cold and heat symptoms.

    Is it related that I have once recevied heat/sauna therapy massage affecting my nervous system and fainted?

    Kindly elaborate
