    Author: Fitzgerald DB, Drago V, Sutherland D, Heilman KM.
    Journal: Mov Disord; 2007 Feb 15; 22(3):392-5. PubMed ID: 17216651.
    Abstract:
    A 64-year-old right-handed woman's right hand and arm developed spontaneous jerks that eventually involved her trunk. As she had some features of parkinsonism, she was treated with carbidopa/levodopa and her myoclonus dramatically improved. The mechanism accounting for this improvement is unknown.
