Clare, Some of my files must be damaged, possibly when I upgraded earlier in the week to version 5. I have may in my file cabinet but its from 1997! Nothing current...maybe we could put out an online call for the guy with the pain in the b.... You know not to be a wise guy or anything but come to think of it my mother was just diagnosed with sciatica, you're right I think about the dx. My mom also has PD and it made me wonder if the back problems are from walking with the PD shuffle. It seems to be responding to physical therapy (alot of stretching exercises and heat) and we all hope it will be better soon. For the last couple of days however she says she has been seeing "things", something like a veil or white fabric flashing by, it is also there when she closes her eyes, I told her it was her angel and she now likes the vision. I wonder if the addition of the anti inflammatory drug is causing PD drugs to react differently, I am calling her doctor if the keep up. Anyway good luck with the pain guy and thanks for the help.
