Have never ever in nearly 50 years of work in nursing have I ever heard of "Stiff Person Syndrome." C'mon, this had to be made up out of thin air! I've heard the term "stiff" though, which evidently follows the "Syndrome."

the first case of a disease is called the index case.

The index case of stiff person syndrom was found in an elderly causcasian male name Willie Mcdermott from Tuscalosa Alabama. THe disease was originally called " stiff willies syndrome" but was later changed when the woke mob found out about it.
