title: Cerebellar effects after consumption of edible morels (Morchella conica, Morchella esculenta).
abstract: Morchella esculenta and Morchella conica are well known edible morels, which seldom induce clinical symptoms. We report six persons who developed cerebellar effects 6-12 hours after consumption of these mushrooms. The symptoms were self-limited and disappeared after one day.
