Hi It sounds as though both of you may have hit one of the biggest adjustments that I faced in adopting my Parkinson's lifestyle. I had become accustomed to always pushing to do more (look for the second wind to carry me through). I have now reached a point where I realize that the exra push to get one more lap, one more block, one more hour will carry with it a penalty of 10 x that many hours for recuperation of that one burst on excess push above my "limit". I do try to maintain exercise and movement and activity. But "Don't overdo" is being heeded a little more often. Rita Weeks
