    I am outside quite a bit. I play pickle ball and still run. I try to do something outside every day.  My symptoms are mild most days.

    Not real sure about direct cause, but unfortunately, did experiment in a variety of drugs in college. Been completely off for decades, had a good career, and now retired. My onset was at age 64.  I’ve heard that this could trigger PD years later.   Would be interested if others would share their story, or others would rule out the link between the two.

    I have foot cramps due to meds. My neurologist said I could take a little protein (protein drink) to reduce the amount of absorption. Just started.
