Thanks for sharing the recent newspaper article with me. I am interested in hearing other peoples stories and how they affected. Just briefly on why I am interested in Parkinson's disease. I had a tremor of the left arm which began in the summer of 1994. After seeing a neurologist I was diagnosed with PD. I began treatment with medication. To make a long story short, by the spring of 1997, it was discovered that I was misdiagnosed with PD. The cause of the tremors, unknown, yet have had several opinions on the cause. Despite not having PD, I am still interested in current research etc. I have been to prior Parkinson Unity walks in NYC. Look forward to seeing you there in September. Till then be well and keep in touch... Allan
