    Phil Brown replied to the topic What kind of a role does music play in your life? in the forum Diagnosis​ ​Information​ ​and​ ​General​ ​Questions 9 months, 3 weeks ago

    This is when problems began. The referral got lost and it was six months before I got to the clinic. They said they would do a report and I should see my doctor in about a month. The report took nine months to get done.

    I noticed some movement in my right hand. I monitored it for a few weeks and eventually took myself off to my doctor. I had a brain CT the next morning and saw a neurologist a few weeks later. They referred me to a special tremor study clinic in Melbourne (I am in Australia)
