Nancy, I found it interesting that your Don has muscle spasms in his chest. I too have spasms in my upper chest and face. They just started last month. I thought I was having a breathing problem at first as each time the spasm would hit I felt as if I had skipped a beat in my breathing. Then I realized that it was muscular and therefore probably PD related. Now I just stop for a few seconds and relax through it. How much fun can we have?? don't forget how to laugh (and do it often) Marling McReynolds 49/3 [log in to unmask] http://members.tripod.com/~marling
