lisa, im using herbs and acupuncture at the present. im also seeing my regular md. it seems to help things, of course very slowly, but my acupuncturist doesnt seem to believe the problems are a direct result of gbs. i know they are and just quit argueing because i could see some improvement. esp. with the paralasis in my face. my md said it works for some and it doesnt for some. it is expensive but she is discounting and trading some out because i do her hair. dont know what the hebs are because she said she doesnt have the time to translate as she would have to look alot of it up. so i take it and believe in it and maybe ill get some benefit from it. good luck, barbara
