Thank you for the response - print size doesn't make a difference but one response did suggest prisms in his glasses - we had heard of that but not known anyone you had it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "nancy" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Saturday, November 10, 2001 1:08 PM Subject: Re: joining > Can he get large print??? > > A rehab doc with specialty in neurology may help with this pain.

He is extremely active and does a lot of carpentry. He can not read easily because of double vision at times when focusing on something close by. The opthamologist said it was part of Parkinson's and nothing could be done. He misses reading but we can get most books on tape. The main problem is pain - pain in his legs after resting. He is on mirapex and the doctor recommended increasing the dose. While looking for an answer to these questions I was referred to this site. Would be interested in anyone who has similar experience contacting us. We live in a small city north of Toronto but my husband's doctor is Dr. Gutman in the Toronto area. I look forward to hearing from you and to passing on information.
