@peggi have you ever used Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com/)? I did a search for "stiff person syndrome +elevated GAD antibody" and got quite a few hits. Here's the link to all of the search results.

Thank you so much for all of your information. I am so confused, though: I have some similar symptoms, but then I also have some not mentioned. I have no pain, no spasticity; but I’d do get sudden spontaneous shocks up my spine that threaten my balance, and I become very stiff (feel like a statue) when I am chilled. My core shivers. I wonder if I should try to get in to Mayo. My current neurology specialist has only treated one other patient with an elevated GAD Ab titer. O
