This happened to me when I was taken off my meds (to determine what symptoms were PD and what were side effects). As soon as I took a new med I began to feel better.

On the old meds I had moments I couldn't move.

Hi Parkey, it just goes to show that no matter how long one has this crap disease lessons can still be learnt. I've made a few wrong moves myself so I know.
