I had begun to feel weakness in my right hand, and a small imperceptible tremor. (It still cannot be seen by others, unless I am under stress or am cold.) I suspect that I had symptoms I ignored. For example, in 1991, someone complained that I frequently dragged my feet (my right foot). I am not satisfied with my meds and the lack of knowledge re treatment of PD. I am depressed, slow, clumsy, suffer from "colonic inertia" which creates my primary stress. The stress I feel is exacerbated by having had several surgeries for scoliosis resulting in 11 fused vertebrae and osteoporosis.
