Good Luck Bernie -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange Network [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Gloria Jaramillo Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2003 10:29 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: <no subject> Hello, My name is Gloria, I'm 61 years old, the mother of two-grown children, I have three granddaughters. I am divorced. I was just diagnosed with PD this past month. After many months of limping and thinking there was something wrong with my right foot, I developed a tremor. I told my doctor about the tremor and he said "it was old age." I accepted this "diagnosis" for a little while. He finally referred me to a neurologist, who diagnosed PD, prescribed carbidopa/levodopa, gave me some literature about PD and told me "to come back in three months." I am in the process of trying to find out as much as I can about PD. Can anybody give me some more resources, advice,...etc? I'm in CA, in the bay area.
