Thank`s for your answer. Like you the one of my friends (Marie 45) feel sure, that she also had got P:S because of stress. The other one (Ann 56) ARE sure that she got the desease some years after devorsing. I `m convinsed that the symptoms started 1 year after my dear husb. passed away from a hartattack 10 years ago, he was only 51 and I 48 years old. My right leg was hanging , and it was difficult for me to walk, and today it`s much worser. I got the diagnose about 3 years ago, but with Sinemet and Permax, I have many "golden" days. I had discussed it with two of our experts - Professor Parkenberg and Dr. Dupont - and both told me, that they can deneigh our theori. Of course we are born with the genes, but I`m glad that other Parkinson patient have the samefeeling like us. Regard from Marie, Ann and Sonia
