I was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's. No one I know has had it or knows someone with it. They don't know what to say except they are sorry. They haven't a clue about symptoms or how one deals with a disease that has no cure. I have just about every symptom and am learning how to deal with it. I really have no desire to socialize until I get it all under control. I am an 81 yr old female who has otherwise been very healthy all my life. Any comments?

@kar907 Pardon me, but if no one talks about PD, how do you know "no one [you] know has it?" As long as We All stay mum, They will all stay dumb. Just a thought.
