No, the transcripts of the 9/6/03 Dystonia Symposium in Irvine wouldn't be posted on the Bulletin Board. They are much too lengthy. You will find transcripts of the various Dystonia Symposiums that have been held up on our International Dystonia On-Line Support Group website http://www.dystonia-support.org Just click on the Symposium Reports link.
For a listing of support groups - world wide - see the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation's website http://www.dystonia-foundation.org
Best Wishes

Hi,I was just wondering if there was going to be anything of interest to those suffering with focal embouchure dystonia. I just wanted to make sure that I didn't go to the convention, and that it was all concerning the genetic dystonias. If you have answer I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.....

Check the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation's website for the entire program. http://www.dystonia-foundation.org and this symposium will be listed under Events.
One great thing about these symposiums is the opportunity to ask questions of the medical professional panelists, or to catch them on one of the breaks and question them then.
Hope that helps some.
Anne
