Default tomorrow? - just getting thru today

Proudest mama,

Start with primary care and you may need a cardiologist. i am the same way but don't exercise enough. I also seem to have pd on the inside now to a large degree...the internal tremor showed up a lot on the ekg i had for a physical last week, along with some irregular heartbeats i feel the trembling inside my neck. Next is a sonogram of the heart. i have chest pressure on a nightly basis but, again, need to exercise. it could be anything from acid reflux to chest dystonia, to a heart attack in the making. i used my exercise bike today..but it's not a given [just got another one] i can't breath, but somehow i must exercise vigorously.

i quit azilect but i'm brain fogged without it. i felt that it could be giving me the chest problem and perhaps the irregular heartbeats. are you taking azilect?

i think i better state it at least once to get the feel of it. I have no option but to get a DBS. i am so full of sinemet that i'm rambling at night and in many ways out of control. I won't go peacefully - will have to start working on my summary of all the changes needed to improve research - but better get it before the economy collapses. geez

i don't like the future much. But i have to try and control it - not possible now. Jim, how was Okun? i live over on the east coast of florida.i wanted to get the DBS that also works on postural instability - PPN? anyone know where they are with that?

proudest mama, i am very underweight...but have the same symptoms. let's share what we find out - echo cardiagram [sp?] on the 25th. you too dbiker and anyone else.

paula
