Dear HB (a new nickname): Just opinions, mind you! Tai Chi - If Anne can maintain her balance, she should go for it; and knowing Anne, I think she would. It is great to learn to control all your muscles, and with this disease, it should be a great help. Nicotine patch - From what I have read, it should make smoking an unpleasant experience, but Anne does not smoke. So...? It had been reported that smoking reduced the incidence of PD, it did not reverse the course once you are on it. This would be akin to taking the polio shot after contracting polio(?). Love to you and Anne Michel Margosis
