Susan, I have PD, my wife has MS. She describes having pins and needles in her left hand, as well as numbness. When the Doctor touches the underside of her left foot, she does not feel it. When she is tired, her left leg drags, so that a limp is visable. At one time she lost the sight in one eye, but the sight did return. I have not experienced any of these symptoms. She does have occasional balance problems,but this was not an early symptom. Her MRI's reveal nothing. Diagnosis was by spinal tap. Hope this information is helpful to you Gary ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
