1. 33-year old Ravi loved jalebi with rabdi, but there was a problem. Whenever he used to have jalebi-rabdi to his heart's content, his legs & arms would become weak, making him bed bound for several hours.

2. In past 6 months, Ravi faced this problem 3 times. On first two occasions, it was during marriage function, so he passed them off as food poisoning.
A week back, he faced the same problem after having Rabdi-Jalebi hygienically prepared at home. He wanted to exclude a disease.

3.After listening to Ravi, I suspected a medical problem and asked him to return to hospital a few hours after having rabdi-jalebi (after informed consent).
On exam, he had developed weakness of legs & arms. He was unable to get up from squatting position. He couldn't raise arms.
