Thank you so much Tupleo - i really appreciate your help!
I just haven't sat down to spend enough time learning how to read my info on 23andme. So i just reviewed the page which show my Parkinson's data - I do not have the LRRK2 mutation, I'm GG. But I do have some issues (red marks) with the other genes - SNCA, MAPT, PARK16, BST1. It's all very interesting!
I have an appointment with my neurologist next month, so I will discuss it with him. Thanks again for all of your help!
