I was doing aerobics when I learned I had PD. I changed my whole schedule at work so that I could continue on a regular basis. That was in 1990. Then I moved to New York to be close to family. My neuro here put me on Requip which really helped. I continued to exercise and she was amazed t hat I was keeping the PD. at bay. I stopped the exercise for a while because I was tired of convincing myself that I had to leave the warm comfort of my house to exercise and my PD seemed to get worse. It might all be in my head, but I seem to have more trouble controlling my symptoms. I have always had a positive attitude that I would not let PD get the best of me, but after 14 years of fighting, it is starting to get me down. Belonging to a group and hearing stories from others always helps.
