Experimental: PD patients with motor fluctuations
FN scale is an autoquestionnaire consisting of 20 questions, to be answered in On-med and OFF-med condition
|
Other: FN scale auto-questionnaire
Patients will be asked to fill in the NF scale questionnaire together with other tests and rating scales, during a routine L-Dopa test, in 2 conditions: OFF-med and ON-med. |
