Subject: Some advice appreciated

Thanks for this terrific support site  -  it is great to be able to learn &
share with PWP friends.

I am 54 and dxd for near on 4 years. I only take Ropinerole and follow a
nutritional support programme, together with weekly acupuncture &
fortnightly biofeedback sessions.

I see my doc & neuro as little as is realistically possible.  I work full
time as an Education Director and am playing golf, tennis & squash.

Unlike most other PWPs I have spoken to, I have experienced a significant
weight gain and suffer from a lot of pain & discomfort across my shoulders
and in my arms.  I thought an exercise programme in the gym might help with
all this - anyone got any pearls of wisdom to impart?

As an afterthought - I suffer from daily headaches - I guess this may be the
Ropinerole - any experiences of this anyone?

Incidentally, there are some great tips for using shortcut keys if you have
difficulty with the mouse - visit 
<>  & download the Office shortcut keys.
There are also some useful tips for customising your keyboard to avoid that
annoying repetition of letters in words.


Stay well


Best wishes

Tony
