Osbourne Diagnosed With Parkin Syndrome | Contactmusic.com "...the 56-year-old singer presumed his body shakes were a result of a lifetime of drug abuse, until doctors recently told him he has inherited the condition from his relatives.
He says, "I'd always assumed it was the booze and stuff. Now I've found it all stems from the family. It's called Parkin but it's not Parkinson's. Anything to do with the central nervous system has the word Parkin in it.
"When I told my sisters she said, 'Not you as well? Mum had that and Auntie Elsie and your grandma.'"
The cynic in me hopes that this isn't another precursor to a cancelling / postponing of the UK and Europe tour later in the year!
