One of the early signs of PD is a stiff neck.  I have had a stiff neck for years.  I just thought it was due to one of the many injuries I have suffered over the years - maybe a little arthritis.  I never gave it much thought.  I had (and continue to have) difficulty looking over my shoulder when backing the car out of the garage.  I couldn't (and still can't) turn my head in either direction without feeling the muscles stiffen and resist movement.  And oh yeah, there is also the pain.  When I turn my head in either direction, I feel pain throughout my neck and into my shoulders.
Just another of the little joys that PD sends my way.  At least I can still see straight.
