Darlene - I have the same experience as you describe, i.e., less trouble 
walking backwards than forward.  I was diagnosed with PD 20+ years ago and, 
in the main, have responded well to traditional PD meds.

I have no idea what this means.  Perhaps it's no more meaningful than this 
expression: "A wet bird never flies at night."
