My wife, 66/3, suffers from back pain. It is located between her shoulder blades. Seems to come on whenever she starts to do anything at the counter top eg. cooking, washing dishes, ironing. -------------- Absolutely a pd symptom. This is one of my most difficult symptoms. Any fine motor activity with the hands (ironing, using a knife, washing dishes, typing, etc.) brings this on in my case. Looking downward seems to make the problem worse. Ultimately, the only relief for me is to stop the activity. If continued, I get terrific migraines as the tension migrates up my neck to my head. Gray (51/4)
