Dreamed I saw a full moon--not a dream--the moon is shining down on me right now. An orange Thanksgiving moon.

Rough day. Stopped the Sinemet medication and symptoms returned. Heavier earlier today. Have moderated as evening approaches. Have decided that I will postpone using anything like Sinemet until I have to use it.

Also wanted to stay within the three-week limit defined by the FSR (yin tuina) people (FSR=Forceless Spontaneous Release) who claim they have had recovery results--as long as the PD person has NOT taken antiparkinson drugs for more than three weeks. (I'm 3 days short of three weeks--18 days when I stopped yesterday.) I can always restart the medications, but I want to give myself some room before jumping in a particular chemical bed.

Discovered that the person I went to hear speak on Medical Qigong is trained in Yin Tuina as is his wife. They maintain a practice in Sacramento. Had I known... Saw him on 10/9... went to doctor on 10/27... just a mere 18 days between events, and now another 18 in learning about Yin Tuina (FSR).

I'm gearing up to create a healthy, spiritual, holistic way of dealing with this condition--which I believe, like the FSR people do, is electrical in nature--it's a problem that is energy based... So slow and steady; small steps; no leaps. Find a path through the mists.

And the words of the dance song haunts me -- Who you gonna call when your road ends at the sea? The FSR people are at the road that ends at the sea...Santa Cruz!
