Dear John,
Good for you for learning all you can about PD. This list is a great
resource -- people here can answer many of your questions.

For information about the Hoehn and Yahr Scale (5 stages) you can go to:

http://www.parkinson.org/stages.htm

I hope you'll post often, with any other questions you have.

Best regards,
Kathrynne
