- Try building your search one term at a time, and be as specific as you can! Search term example: "chronic cough".
- Do not enter multiple findings such as "anemia, chronic cough, weight loss, vomiting" all at the same time.
- After selecting your term from the search results a list of possible diagnoses will be generated. If the list is too long, you will be able to narrow it down by entering additional terms.
- Do not enter values such as "heart rhythm 110" or "sodium 125", instead use "tachycardia" or "hyponatremia".

- Definition
-
Paraneoplastic CNS disease; autoimmune at hypothalamus cord level is subset of multifocal encephalomyelitis paraneoplastic syndrome but with more spinal cord, lower motor neuron, dorsal root and ANS involvement with paraplegia, dysrhythmias, hypotension, central respiratory depression. often related to oat cell disease; sometimes occurs months before cancer shows ; poor response to treatment;much over lap with these syndromes
