title: Acquired neuromyotonia in association with systemic lupus erythematosus.
abstract: Acquired neuromyotonia (NMT) is a rare condition resulting from a dysfunction of motor nerves. Current literature suggests acquired NMT is an antibody-mediated channelopathy. We present a case of acquired NMT in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. This association has not been previously reported.
