Weight training went well today. Fairly large class! Nine people with PD were there. I was struck by the various states each of us is in relative to what symptoms we are exhibiting. Nine people and nine different manifestations. People moving slowly versus those of us that are moving well. We each have a range of tremor that we exhibit. There are various cognitive states, range of movement, and speeds of reaction to instructions. And there are several people who move really slowly or don't move much at all. A spectrum of views of the illness.

And then there are the things that are not being acted out--like the state of my bowels (loose and leaking gas). I'm sure there is a range of pains, tensions, cramps, and other phenomena that is not being manifested by each of us.

Yes, my digestion regressed today. Back to more of the looseness and mild discomfort. I had more rice and veggies for lunch again today. I was experiencing the digestion problems before eating--in late morning after I got up. I had some apple and kefir when I awoke. Took an Imodium after this evening's episode. I had a green tea latte after the weight training class--I just felt like having something warm and comforting. Had a bowl of chips (made from quinoa, beans, corn and spices--no wheat) while I watched an episode of Prime Suspect.

Laundry day tomorrow! The daze go by! In the blink of an eye! My, oh, my! Huckleberry pie!
