Martin B... Geee, Martin, I'm going steady with Mr. Fatigue! Tell ya what tho... since YOU seem to have developed SUCH a close relationship to him, I'm going to back out of mine and let you have Mr. Fatigue all to yourself. (heck... I never DID like dating fickle men!) <grinning ruefully> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Parkinson's Information Exchange On Behalf Of Martin K Bayne Sent: Monday, May 05, 1997 7:51 AM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: This $%*#! Fatigue When I was first diagnosed with PD 3 yrs ago at age 44 I thought, "Gee, this ain't so bad. So I've got some tremors, a weird arm swing and tend to drag my foot. I can live with this. Think of all the poor blokes like Christopher Reeves who REALLY have it bad." Then, about two months ago, I was introduced to a gentleman by the name of Mr. Fatigue. Now it seems the two of us are inseparable. We travel everywhere together. You'd think we were best buddies. Truth is...I can't shake the creep. He's on me like a cheap suit, and he's got the tenacity of a pit bull and the persistence of a life insurance salesman. And he's making my life *miserable*. Do any of you fellow travelers have any suggestions? Martin Bayne [log in to unmask] 150 mg sinemet 6 X day & 30 mg paxil
