sheena briefly presented the case of a man who fell over at the bus stop
we focused on examining his cerebellar system
we could only examine his left arm
he had:
- no rebound of the outstretched arm
- no dysmetria
- mild dysdiadochokinesis at the forearm
- moderate dysdiadochokinesis at the fingers
- unconvincing horizontal nystagmus in the direction of gaze
- a reasonable gait
- normal heel-toe walking
we did not test his speech
we did test his power (why would we want to do this?)

unfortunately we had to rush his story & did not look at his scans
sheena: could you update us (anonymously) please?

we talked about learning resources
i mentioned the book by geraint fuller which i think is excellent
this site from the university of utah is also excellent & demonstrates many of the signs we were discussing
