 I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
 Subject: I found both Meyerson and Myerson signs in my Surgical Word Book
 
 According to Google, they seem to both have the same definition.
 
 Myerson's sign is a medical condition where a patient is unable to resist blinking when tapped on the glabella, the area above the nose and between the eyebrows. It is often an early symptom of Parkinson's disease.
 
 Snout Reflex: percuss the upper lip near the midline - pursing or puckering of lips; glabellar reflex (=Meyerson's sign) - percuss on forehead in the middle above eyes: produces continued blinking with each tap. Also seen in Parkinson's. Grasp Reflex - stroke the mid-palm upward to fingers; you may warn the patient not to hold on.
 
 Since, the doc is spelling Meyerson, I would give him that one.
 
 Crazy huh?
