I almost hate to say it but but we could call the band the PD-CP's and our television commercial for our CD release could say the following," Call it amazing. A must see for young and old alike. Gutsy and innovative. 4 PWP's have turned an otherwise disabling disease into a unique way to both entertain the masses and raise funds for research. These 4 brave souls use nothing but their bodies to to play the songs you grew up with (Break to some of your favorite oldies but goodies like in those old K-Tel ads). They Crack and Pop to everything from "Whole lot of shakin' goin' on" to "You move me." This CD promises to have the whole house rockin' in no time at all. Now that I have had a laugh... let's go see our respective docs and see what they have to say. Maybe we can do something about this one. Deborah aka Tenacity Hi Debra,Deborah,and Murray, Add me to the "clicker"s and "pop"pers. I was blaming it on arthritis, but it does seem to be more prevalent on my right side, which is also my Parkie side. Perhaps it is the PD... Carole H. Perhaps we should form a band? ;)) --- Murray Charters <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Hi Deborah and Debra, > I also "click" and "pop" often when I walk... > > In looking back I cannot remember when my ankle did not > click > when first initiating movement on rising. > > My big toe poppin' occasionally I noticed right after a > car > accident in '91... > > My knee (these are all on my right side, my "parkie" > side) > clicks once in a while lately and it is associated with > an > annoying (almost painful) sensation.... > > I think it is PD... > > I've also noticed minor tension and stress in my right > knee when > climbing stairs lately... > > cheers ..... murray > > > On 19 Apr 2002, at 18:02, Deborah Setzer wrote: > > > Debra, > > > > The only other thing that was suggest to me was that > I get my doctor > > to > > order a bone scan.
