The parity violating (PV) nucleon self-energy in nuclear matter is calculated in a relativistic Hartree-Fock approximation. Omega meson contributions are enhanced 63% by relativistic effects. However, the total PV self-energy is dominated by [pi] and [rho] contributions, which are relatively insensitive to relativistic effects. These results are used to estimate the 2[ital d][sub 5/2] to 2[ital f][sub 5/2] PV matrix element in [sup 207]Pb.
