My friend Anne wishes to join the conversation again. As i explained before she does not have access to a computer, so has asked me to relay the following: She has trouble with her feet too. Apart from what she calls the "normal PD scrunched up toes, she also has very little feeling in her feet ( or her hands). She can feel the presence of something, but no pain, or heat or cold. She asks if anyone has had BOTOX treatment for their toe problems? And what about orthotics? And does anyone have any sort of exercise routine specifically directed to the toes. As I told you last time around, she has only been taking sinemet since January, and up till now has been dealing with her problems by using some yoga techniques. Since she has years of experience both of practising and teaching yoga, she has begun developing a handbook of exercises for the feet and the hands especially to help PWPs. She requests comments and input. Anne, I hope I remembered correctly all the things you wanted me to say.
