Is there anyway that HD can be progressing with little to no chorea??
I am a care giver for my partner and he seems to be moving very quickly in all the other symptoms just not the chorea.
Everyone tells me that I am crazy but I just wondered?

My FIL didn't have much of any chorea (towards the end of his life he would shuffle his feet when he sat and he also would move his fingers/hands a bit). Use the search feature of this site. I think this was recently discussed. Marsha posted something about 1 in 8 pHD's don't have chorea. Also it can be common for the motor symptoms to come later.
