Just when you think your symptoms are problematic... I watched our Attorney General on CSPAN last night doing a press conference. Her left hand was *noticeably* shaking during the entire program, and yet she did nothing to hide or disguise the tremors; just kind of let it all hang out. (I really like her moxy - I hope she's one of the Clinton cabinet "survivors") On another note, I was speaking last week with a friend who also has PD and explaining that, although my olfactory sensitivity has been dramatically decreased by PD, I get a very distinct "aroma" when I take sinemet. This background sinemet aroma is not unpleasant but very pronounced. I was quite surprised when he told me that he experiences the exact same phenomenon. Regards to all, Martin K Bayne 46/3
