Just read the thread..amazes me that other people have experienced my "strange" foot. In 7th grade I had a diving accident & hurt my neck & back. At that time started to drag my right foot / turned in. Every day walking about a mile or so to school...I concentrated hard and made the foot walk correctly. It took a while, but with diligence, I did it! Now at 56, experiencing beginning PD symptoms...my "strange" foot comes back when I am tired and need to call it a day. At that point, I just don't have the energy left to correct it's bad behavior. I have not been "diagnosed" by a neurologist, but my daughter (a nurse practitioner) is pushing me to see a doctor. What a drag! Don't like to waste money & will treat myself with fava beans/ mucuna and diet anyway. Hope I can get into a research study on hereditary PD (grandfather, his brother, my brother, cousin & lots of essential trmor in the family _my dad for one) Any suggestions???? *Growing to love you all Aunt Bean
