Thanks!
Laura: I agree with your point about PWP suffering through agonists rather than taking sinemet and about doctors postponing its introduction, often to the detriment of the patient's quality of life. I also believe that my own adherence to a strict schedule has minimized a lot of the problems typically connected to sinemet. Time will tell.
As for my attitude, I've been harshly criticized in the past for being too positive and that's why the "gulp factor" about posting here. I do feel that my attitude affects my general sense of well-being and it is part of "what works for me." I still feel the effects of PD, but how I think about them is a choice.
One of my favorite quotes come from Richard Bach's book ILLUSIONS, "Argue for your limitations and, sure enough, they're yours." I try to argue for my possibilities, rather than my limitations.
Thanks for your supportive response,
Judith
