Thanks Audrey - I do hope your friend makes contact. It's good to talk!! Best wishes Tony -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange Network [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Audrey Sent: 09 May 2000 23:47 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Some advice/help appreciated Hi Tony , I just read your post and thought the symtoms you describe fit the ones my friend John has. He told me that he has lost weight over the past year. He also told me that his shoulders and arms hurt especially his shoulders. He calls them "sore" which is a good description I suspect knowing him. John seldom reads the posts but I will forward this to him to see if he will respond to you, or a least let me know if there is anything I can add to help you. I hope this is of some help for you ... *seattle* audrey friend of pwp aussie John 49/42/38 ? ----- Original Message ----- From: " Tony Leather at Home" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Monday, May 08, 2000 4:42 AM Subject: Some advice/help appreciated > Best wishes > > Tony > > -----Original Message----- > From: Tony Leather at Home [mailto:[log in to unmask]] > Sent: 30 April 2000 20:22 > To: L-Soft list server at UofT (1.8d) > Subject: Some advice appreciated > > Thanks for this terrific support site - it is great to be able to learn & > share with PWP friends. > > I am 54 and dxd for near on 4 years.
