I’m generally a happy person and when Christmas comes (my favorite) I used to love to decorate, get out and shop to the Christmas music, wrap and bake cookies. Now all that has changed. I haven’t decorated for Christmas in a big way since 2018 because of my PD.
I miss how “up” I used to feel. It’s all a chore now; I get tired and out of breath quickly and I have many days my hands and/or my legs just don’t want to cooperate.
I’m trying to get back in the spirit this year with the help of new meds and have found a few things I didn’t pack away to decorate with, bought a couple of pointsettas and display the Christmas cards I’ve received. I bought mostly gift cards and have managed to do some wrapping (very slowly)and… I’m going to TRY to make one batch of cookies… just to feel part of the seasonal joy.
I look forward to 2022 with hopes of more positive progress in my health and wish all of you the same.
God Bless,
Judy

Hi Jean, Yes, I just started it last week and had 3 perfect days of walking in a row. It’s a small dose; I think 20mg. No side affects yet. I’m having a bad day walking today and did yesterday as well, but I think I may have forgotten to add that pill to my dispenser. I took it today, so we’ll see. I hope if you are on it that it helps you too.
