Default Retropulsion... anybody else here moonwalk?

hey all --

I'm a sufferer of encephalitic parkinsonism and I'm wondering if anybody here has issues walking in the proper direction. I mean, it's common for us parkinsonites to walk 'off-kilter' and veer off the intended course... but I'm interested in hearing from others who have the volition to walk forward, but instead, end up walking backwards.

I have this problem quite a bit, and it's caused me to occasionally back into walls, and once, another person (!).

Input's appreciated.
