thanks again!
Our stories are similar ... I was dx with PD at 44 and am currently 56. The first neuro refused to give me a dx and made my life a living hell. He had my ex-husband and four children thinking I "wanted" this dx. I couldn't take it any longer and finally made another appt. with the head of Baylor School of Medicine (in Texas) who did a 2 hour eval. He put me on Mirapex and Artane which totally controlled my symptoms for those 11 years. Now I'm back to square one.
I couldn't help but notice two things in your post. You live in Alaska and we both have quotes from Maya Angelou. My family lived in Norway for nearly six years with an oil company and I often joked with my ex that he didn't have to worry about infidelity because I wasn't staying!! When we got back, we were transferred to Oklahoma and then eventually Texas. After my divorce, I moved to Chicago and it's too far north already! Enjoy your summer. It's quickly coming to an end ...
