Ken,

Before I had the right sinemetdose, I could not walk forward at all or only on
my toes, but I could always walk backward rather relaxed. I was hospitalised
some time and was told it was not unusual for them seeing a patient walking
backward.
Now that I have changed my med's schedule, because I suffered from long
lasting, heavy dyskinesias, this backward walking in my "off" times is back.
Sometimes crab-like shuffling does the trick too.
