I was sitting on a chair in front
of a full length gym mirror doing Pilates (yes, I go to a Parkinson’s Pilates
class!) when I noticed something strange: my reflection was leaning to one side
but I felt like I was sitting straight.
When I corrected my reflection so it was straight I then felt like I was leaning to one side. It was very strange.
It seems my Parkinson’s is
affecting how I sense my body; Parkinson’s is trying to shove me out of the way.
My MDS noticed I lean to one side when I walk. She said it is because the muscles on the stronger side are pulling me in that direction. Soon I will be straight again as it appears that now both sides are equally affected.
