Well, after an initial exam by the family doctor, a blood test and an MRI, I was sent to a neurologist in Corvallis. He confirmed what I have suspected for quite some time now, and diagnosed me with Parkinson's Disease. My symptoms aren't bad yet, so he prescribed Selegeline to reduce the tremors in my left hand.
It's an incurable disease but they have medicine that can keep the symptoms under control. I don't plan on it interfering with my fishing, kayaking or writing so I don't see any big changes in the near future.
