Hi, dpso (@dpso)

I've no problem driving. Of course, I'm unaware of numbness, although the EMG insists I've got some. I'm only troubled by poor balance––poorer at some hours of the day than others. Something Michael J. Fox said in his latest memoir, No Time Like the Future, about one of Parkinson's more curious effects, has stuck with me. Fox said that as challenging as it is for him to walk a straight line on a flat surface, he has far less difficulty going up and down stairs. He believes something is exacting about the "geography" of stairs that tells his brain, "Put your right foot exactly here, now your left foot exactly here, now your right … " I suspect there may be a similar exactness about driving that (at least for me) temporarily clears away the inexactness I contend with when I'm simply trying to walk down the street.
