Hello, I am a 62 yr. old Viet Nam US veteran who has been diagnosed, 6 months ago with PD. The presumptive cause was exposure to Agent Orange (dioxin) while serving in combat from 1969-70. I am taking Ropinirole (VA formulary) and learning to deal with the side effects. My symptoms have accelerated and it seems change daily. My wife purchased for me an "urban rebounder" (mini-trampoline) to start an exercise plan. I am looking forward to learning from each of you. _________________________________________________________________ Chat with Messenger straight from your Hotmail inbox. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/hotmail_bl1/hotmail_bl1.aspx?ocid=PID23879::T:WLMTAGL:ON:WL:en-ww:WM_IMHM_4:092009 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
