Eastern Standard Time From: [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) To: [log in to unmask] (mailto:[log in to unmask]) Sent on: I was just recently diagnosed with PD. After about 8 months seeing an orthopedic for pain in the back, left thigh and left leg associated with leg weakness and limping. Your symptoms sound like mine. Then when I got the tremor in the left hand, I went on line and diagnosed myself. Confirmed by the neurologist. To see Dr. Weiner at Univ. of Md. in Baltimore in late Dec. On no medication as of yet. I do not like taking medication but I guess I will have to. Now have pain in left arm and stiffness in shoulder and hand weakness. What can I expect next? Depressed about this situation..........Debbie ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
