We present an 89-year-old man with new onset of left-sided hemiballismus affecting his face, arm and leg. He was found to have hyperglycaemia with a glucose level of 20.2 mmol/l and had started prednisolone 3 months earlier for polymyalgia rheumatica. A T 2-weighted magnetic resonance scan of the brain showed a hypointense lesion of the right lentiform nucleus. At follow-up, his symptoms had improved with treatment for diabetes mellitus. To our knowledge, this is the first patient to develop hemiballismus after starting corticosteroids.
