Everyday is different

As people with Parkinson's knows, everyday your symptoms are different.   Maybe your medications don't last long, maybe your energy is low or you feel depressed.  Well take note everyone.....I am having a good day!  I went to the gym this morning and my medication stayed "on" the whole time.  Now I have so much energy and I am ready to tackle my day!  Ah, yes, the birds are singing, puppy dogs are playing and wait a minute....I think I see a rainbow!

    Thsnks for reading my poems! I am enjoying your blog here. I also want to check out some of the other Parkinson's blogs that you follow. I was diagnosed in 2001 so have had Parkinson's for approximately ten years. Had DBS in 2007. It was not all I had hoped for, but definitely improved the dyskinesias. Never had much of a tremor. Take care, good luck to you, and keep on blogging. Blogs like this one really do shed a light in the dark places. Take care! Bruce Potts. P.S. For sleep, have you ever tried Clonazepam? I have REM behavior disorder because of the Parkinson's and they use Clonazepam to treat it. It was the first medicine I've ever taken that has allowed me to sleep.

    Thank you for the comment! I run a Parkinson's program here in Orange County, and I hear from my members that I don't look like PD affects me. That I am always happy and rarely show symptoms. So I have decided to start a personal blog to show that I have hard days, nights and everything in between!I run a program for PD...... I have to show my happiness and positive energy. I mean who would want to come to one of my groups if I was depressed and complained all the time! I have not shared my blog with many people because I like the fact that I can choose who to tell I have a Parkinson's blog. I have been in the paper a few times, so people come to my groups already knowing my whole life history.....so this blog has been a nice change! Keep in touch, and I will keep blogging!
