I know that this is a designer disease, but I am looking for anyone who may have started similar to me which may tell me how this will progress. I am 55 and was dx 3 months ago. About 18 months ago, my first physical symptom was cramping in left leg during exercise. Then about 6 months ago, my left arm and hand developed mild bradykinesia. Approx 2-3 months ago, i started having problems with constipation, drooling, and light -headedness, and weak voice. Now, one of my biggest complaints is fatigue. I sleep alot and still find it tough to make it thru the work day. I am also starting to have mild dyskinesia's such as a head jerk or leg twitch. I am not on meds yet. Does this sound familiar to anyone? What strategies /meds seem to work best for you? What did your progression lead to? Bob PS I cannot tell if my posts make it to the list unless someone answers; is that normal or do i need to change a setting? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
