Hi, M. wanted to echo Chris' statements. For me it was not so hard in the early years of PD. I even wondered if I would shake when seeing neurologist, boy were those the days. Like Chris I have had DBS which helped my killer tremors, but that's all. Some people get their lives back Don't take PD meds as Sinemet only helped once on 1st dose, never for a year thereafter, altho its supposed to "build up". Hope your PD progresses very, very slowly. I"m 9 yrs into the disease. Welcome and good luck,'Ray ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
