How often is parkinsons disease misdiagnosed? I just found out my mom has been diagnosed with parkinsons disease. I know to test for it there wasnt any real way to check for it except several reflex tests etc... but there wasnt any lab work or blood test they did to tell for sure that she has it. It seems like this disease would be easy to misdiagnosed for that reason, that there arent any lab tests or blood work done. Anyone have any experience with this, could she of been misdiagnosed? How often is pd misdiagnosed? Also I dont know if this matters but my mom is a little bit of a hypochondriac, so she thought she had parkinsons disease before she even got tested for it. She knew what all of the symptms were before she went to the dr. because she looked them up on the internet. Do you think that could play a factor in misdiagnosing pd?
