Hello Ann,
Its nice sometimes to have some soothing words and have people care about you but, at the end of the day, you are still left with the illness, be it Parkinsons or any other and you have to get on with it yourself. No one can tell how bad you feel sometimes and their expectations of you are often for more than you can manage.
I worried a lot about PD which was diagnosed 7 years ago but then I got cancer of the kidney, prostate cancer and chronic renal failure one after the other. I expect to go on dialysis sometime soon. What I came to realise was that I was bothered less by the PD because I had other things to worry about....in other words, to begin with, PD was in my mind every waking moment and I felt real sorry for myself but when the other things came along it put the PD into some kind of perspective and I realised that it was not only manageable but that the more I helped myself the more manageable it was.
ED's advice is good, PD is not a nice thing to have but try not to dwell on it and certainly don't go into your shell thinking its all over....because it's not.
When I am having a bad day I think of the better days that will surely follow. I am not a strongly religeous person but I do ask HIM for help and HE does give it....honestly.
Take care and good luck when you see the neuro
