David, Just so you know you're not alone -- my pd is on a fast track also. It is so important to learn to take and enjoy one day at a time. Comparing where you were last week, or last month, or yesterday even though medically necessary, only deprives you of the joy that may be right in front of you. It's taken me three years to begin to accept that. It has been my experience that not comparing where you are today as opposed to where you were yesterday is especially important if you have an aggressive pd which carries it's own set of problems that must be dealt with. you are not whacko, nuts, crazy, or any of the million other words used to describe not in keeping with the norm. I hope your appointment with the movement disorder specialist goes well. Feel free to contact me off-line.
