In part one of this three part series on Parkinson's and the senses, Amber, Chris, Sree, Kat, Stan, Larry, and Kristi talk about how Parkinson's affects the senses we don't always think about. The panel digs into smell and taste, from olfactory hallucinations and not knowing if you smell to craving stronger flavors, safety concerns around spoiled food and gas leaks, and digestive changes that come along for the ride.
