@jatonlouise 🤣😂 Thank you. Humor IS the best medicine. I no longer seem to be able tell a story or a joke to save my life. The squirrel is strong with this one. That’s the part of my PD journey that REALLY annoys me at this point. Guess I’m heading to the part where old jokes will always be new to me😆. At least I have been keeping my docs entertained.

@janna2 Doctors need a good laugh every now and then. In fact, al our health care professionals could use a joke here or there, given that their plates are so full. And we neeed to think of ways to help them help us, like coming to your doctor's appointment prepared like you would for a meeting, current status, any quesstions, any observations that may be helpful to your doctor to know, a list of meds that you need refills for, etc.. So many folks have the expectation that doctors know everything; they know alot but they can't read our minds and, given that PD seems to be have unique manifestations for each patient, any info you give them may be like that last puzzle lpiece on a jigsaw puzzle, that brings the whole thing together.
