To all of you who responded to my test and request for help - thank you. I am new to this e-mail business so please bear with me. I am 54 and was diagnosed with PD in August of 1993. I appreciate this bulletin board and may have met some of you at the Parkinson's Conference in Toronto in September. My neurologist told me to read everything I could find about this monster and I have learned a lot from your messages. Judith
