Default Hello Vertigo....

So you have PD . I think that this is a good place to be for people with PD. You can get involved in asking personal questions and find that you will get treated with respect and honesty, but even though some of us are scientists, to my knowledge there is no actively posting neurologist who specializes in PD here. Nor should there be. IT would be putting themselves at risk professionally. WE as a group have a good thing going here because we stipulate that what we say is only our personal opinions, and as such we are not responsible for giving professional advice, just advice that comes from the years that we have been suffering PD together, as a group.
One thing to say is that we are all very different. PD is not like other diseases, what you are feeling can be understood by many of our members, but PD , you'll find has it's vagaries, and some people will not have ever felt the way you feel, so don't take us to literally. You will identify with some of us, but feel very different and disagree with others.
At any age, a person can have other diseases along with PD, which further makes our differences greater. You don't have to be afriad here, just be prudent what you say to others, and never give any more information than your "screen name", and you will be anonymous. Welcome to the group. cs
