Hello PD Friends, My name is Claire , diagnosed at age 54 (had PD at least 2 years already). I am 62 and had been progressing slowly until I fell and broke my back in 9/2004 . In the past year and half I feel as though I progressed 200%. I feel that it has to do with all the morphine I had within 5 days. (my opinion) . Thank you for the discussion on double vision! I knew something was wrong. I have nerve damage and within next few months I have apptmt to see a neuro-opthamologist. I've been trying to post on this list the last two weeks -without success. Hope this time I get thru! I have disability info which I believe will be helpful. I will send separate. Best regards to all..
