Lost last night's dreams. Don't remember any fragments, nada. Dreams of import will return another night.

Today was filled with appointments--dental, medical, chiropractic and dancing--plus some errands, food foraging, and driving aimlessly about.

Dental went well. Medical went less well. Doctor listened to my symptoms (tremor, shaking on right side) and suggested that I take some drugs that moderate PD symptoms. If the symptoms go away with the drugs, I might have PD. If not, then I probably don't have it, but am experiencing something else. Picked up the prescription (Sinemet). Scary list of possible complications, but using it for a month should clear up whether it's a Yes or No.

Will not begin the drugs until early next week so I can do a bit more research and investigation. Not happy to have heard what I've heard, but some relief that there is some clarity about what is going on.

Over the past week, I had pretty much convinced myself that I was experiencing something that was mechanical/physical--not anything neurological. I was feeling fairly positive up until today. I'm on the downside of the slide after today. Up and down, and round and round--never knowing where I've been or gone...
