Symptom #9: Hallucinations or Delusions

Among patients with Parkinson’s disease, up to 50% of patients experience hallucinations or delusions during their course of illness. It may also mean that dementia may soon be starting.

Some of the hallucinations that occur include the “sense of passage” where the individual feels that there is something that quickly passes beside the person, or “sense of presence” where there is a feeling that something or someone is standing near the person. The hallucinations or delusions can also become full blown or vivid with paranoid ideas and visual hallucinations.
