Before we all begin to compare the number of times we sneeze upon stepping outside into the sunlight, I guess you'd all better know THIS is one thing we CAN'T blame on PD!! <grin> A coupla years ago (darn... I KNEW I should've saved the article for future reference), I read in one of the respected monthly magazines that over 50 percent of the world's population (including myself) has a sensitivity to the sun upon going from inside to outside. Those individuals react by sneezing within a few moments of stepping into the sunlight. No biggee... and not at all PD related apparently. Kids sneeze, anceint grannies sneze, young teens sneeze, LOTS of us allllllllllll around the world sneeze when we go from inside to outside, into the sunlight.

Parkinson's meds are known to cause sensitivity to light, I'm told. (But my wife swears I've always done this, before I was ever diagnosed). Dick
