| Abstract: | Alcoholism is rarely reported as a clinical problem in Nigerians. This report is of a Nigerian alcoholic who presented with chest infection and alcohol withdrawal symptoms and subsequently developed transient hemiparesis which responded to correction of hypoglycaemia. Mypoglycaemia should be considered in all alcoholics presenting with hemiparesis. |
