I had asked previously if those of you who have had PD for a long period of
time
suffered from severe muscle spasms.  It seems to me that doctors don't know
a great deal about the long term effects that our disease has on early
onset
patients.I was diagnosed at 37 and am now at almost 20   yrs with PD.  I
think gait
problems cause me severe muscle spasms and when I ask this question I
usually
get the answer "well, we certainly can't rule that out".  I guess I am just
very
frustrated at this point because I am  having  back surgery soon and I just
wonder  how these problems may effect my recovery.

Also, I was wondering how the patients on Mirapex 8 weeks + are doing
