Three years ago my doctor watched me walk 10 steps and told me I have PD. I shuffled, tripped, was off balance, hand clenched, arm straight at my side, neck could move no more than 90 degrees. After cycling, my doctor told me that if he didn't know I have PD, he wouldn't know. I'm certainly in much better shape. BTW, the other cyclist, John, is an early onset. He's had PD for nine years and is in much better shape now than when I met him two years ago.

Another person from Calgary contacted me and shared the same frustration with getting medical help there. I'm going to suggest she join this list and contact you if she wishes.

Thanks for your kind words.
