Is Eating Fish Related-Psychiatric Disorders? A Case Report of Female Child with Schizopherinia Related Fish Ingestion
Many studies worldwide reported about patients developed gastrointestinal symptoms generally within three to six hours of eating the fish. Neurologic symptoms, including circumoral paresthesias and weakness in the lower extremities, can occur later; occasionally a reversal of hot-cold taste sensation is reported. Neurologic symptoms often persist for several weeks, but in some cases can last for years. We have reported a case study of female child presenting with A Schizophrenia like attack just after fish ingestion, following the patients up for 30 months, the disease symptoms disappeared when patient was adherent to medications, relapsed when eating fish in a surprising character. In such an interesting case report, we shed light on the food born-neurological and psychiatric illness produced by eating fish.
