چکیده
Case: This 33-year-old woman was admitted to the psychiatry ward, brought by her husband, after rapidly developing a “little girl” speech and inability to remember where she was or what she needed to do. Prior to this admission, she had spent approximately 3 weeks with intractable vomiting, which was reportedly triggered by her remorseful confession to her husband of an extramarital affair. A neurology consultation was called for what were reported as convulsive-type movements in the arms and head, screaming episodes, and a bizarre gait. She had no memory of any of the symptoms forcing her hospital admission. She also complained of feeling that “the ground is moving.” The consulting neurologist was informed of a strong suspicion for a psychogenic nature of these patient’s symptoms and deficits. A brief examination at the bedside sufficed to endorse the psychiatry team’s impression of a psychogenic disorder.
