Fleurette and Lanier I was diagnosed with PD five years ago and I do not take medicine. Yes, I have a right side tremor and I am slower but I go the gym three times a week, get a weekly massage, meditate with a group three times a week and am pursuing Feldenkrais lessons ( http:llwww.feldenkrais.com). I also take vitamin supplements, especially V-B complex. I started this intense program this past June after quitting my high intensity job in hospital acute admissions for the mentally ill. I am aware of the danger of negative cognitions and try to see my physical state as a blessing in disguise. keep writing in as your messages reinforces my beliefs. Zayde ([log in to unmask])
