Hi Murray and Deborah My bones/body now makes clicking/cracking/creaking sounds which I definitely attribute to pd and atrophy. For the life of me if I tried to make my fingers crack like some of my friends could. do.....nada ......couldn't do it. Heh Murray between the back problems and the creaking stuff I guess we should be staying off our computers and exercising. I found a flex ball really helps.
