Abstract
We describe a 76-year-old patient with a severe tremor due to chronic demye
linating neuropathy associated with a benign IgM paraproteinaemia that was
successfully treated with gabapentin, The patient reached the full dose of
1,200 mg/day of gabapentin without side effects and showed a significant th
erapy-related improvement of tremor and disability, as judged by the Fahn T
olosa Marin Rating Scale. (C) 2001 Movement Disorder Society.
