Good Afternoon PerlMonk gurus, I cannot seem to figure a way to extract all the data between the parenthesis and also all the data before the parenthesis. I then want to rearrange it so it prints it into a file like below:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

open my $NEW_FAM, '>', 'C:/Scripts/TEST/History_FAM_Test.txt'
    or die "Could not open target file. $!";
    
my $line1 = "Positive for Depression (  mother ; sister  ),  Type 2 Di
+abetes (  father ; mother ; grandparents  ) and  Anxiety ( mother) ."
+;
my $line2 = "Cancer ( mother, grandmother )";

push(my @test, $line1);
push(@test, $line2); 

for my $test (@test) {
        if ($test =~ /\(/) {
            print "Has () ... \n";
            $test =~ s/Positive\sfor\s//;
             my @var3 = $test =~ /\((.*)\)/g;
                 # Extract and then separate into different rows based
+ on the family members inside the parenthesis 
                 #print into the file with pipes as separators
        }
}

Below is how the output into the file should look like:

Output:

mother || Depression
sister || Depression
father || Type 2 Diabetes
mother || Type 2 Diabetes
grandparents || Type 2 Diabetes
mother || Anxiety                   #Notice the 'and' is stripped out
mother || Cancer 
grandmother || Cancer

Thanks in advance!!!
