Pam, I too have begun to experience a lot ofmuscle and joint pain as the PD progresses. I liken it to having fibromyalgia. Four asprin knocks the pain down for a short time, plus exercise. I have been waking up in pain, and to go back to sleep I take a half a Sinimet, although you have to be careful with this because I find that with too much Sinimet, I get "lucid dreams." Rainy weather exacerbates the pain. Literally, I feel your pain.
