I have had PD for 4 to 5 years. These years have been marked by stiff walking, no arm swing, shuffling to some extent. I am on 4 carbidopa/levadopa pills per day. No other meds. For some reason my walking has improved over the last couple of months dramatically. So much so that my husband said if I lost my right hand/arm tremor no one could know I had PD. My massage therapist noticed it. When I walked down the hallway at the office, my neurologist kept smiling at how "loose" I walked. With an UNINTENTIONAL arm swing. The arm just started looking like a "normal" arm. I am completely at a loss as to why or how this is happening. I KNOW that PD causes a slow decline and does not improve. I keep trying to think if anything changed....diet, exercise, etc. but I can't think of any explanation. Has anyone heard of this....dare I say....type of remission??? It FEELS so good to walk normally again!
