Hi Group. Well, we're almost getting back to normal here in Upstate NY - about 9 inches of snow on the ground right now. I suppose his might sound a bit strange to some, but I really enjoyed getting out there and shoveling the stuff. There's a unique quiet and peacefulness about being outside in new-fallen snow, flakes drifting down around you... Anyway... my wife read an article recently in the local paper about the apparent benefits that some people have seen using nicotine patches. One person, described in this article, reported a dramatic reversal of their PD symptoms after using the patches. Anyone have any comments on this?
