Book that might be of interest

Hey Guys and Dolls,

I stumbled over a book whilst trying to work out if there was even a remote posibility that all symptoms could be from something other than neurological, cant help a gal for trying lol. Anyway, I thought it might be of interest to others(limbo landers or dx) its called ' Physical medicine and rehabilitation secrets By Bryan O'Young, Mark A. Young, Steven A. Stiens ' . Its very easy to read as an example:

41. What are the clinical features of cerabellar disease?
The main features of cerabellar disease can be remembered by the mnemonic HANDS Tremor:

H = Hypotonia
A = Asynergy ( lack of coordination)
N = Nystagmus (ocular oscillation)
D = Dysarthria ( speech abnormalities)
S = Station and gait ( ataxia)

Tremor = coarse intention tremor

The link is very long so not sure it will come out ok but here it is:

JJ - thanks for the referral.  I'm always looking for another good book for leisure  reading, but my family points out that it should be fiction and not medical ones! LOL

be well, Lulu

ouch! I just checked amazon and find this book is $40+ used.  I guess I'll check it out of the library, instead.
