Hello @jon1547 and welcome to the PD support group on Mayo Connect. Your idea of exercise and building a strong social network are great suggestions for anyone with PD.
As this is your first post on this discussion group, please share, as you are comfortable doing so, a little about your experience with PD. I look forward to hearing from you again.

Thanks for your welcoming message requesting intro comments about me. Since I am very new to this whole connect group and PD I'm not sure what to say. It was more of an accident that I ended up here. I was just poking around in the Mayo directory looking for information on Parkinsons.
I was officially diagnosed with Parkinsons disease little over a year ago. It was a relief to have a name and information to go with all the odd and irritating things happening to my body. Of the 33 items on my WT*# list 24 were on the PD symptom list. What makes it difficult for me is how unpredictable my disfunctions are.
I am curious by nature. Really don't believe In accidents. PD has changed my life.
