I also had nerve conduction tests great we (The DR Sees results Great what is he doing to stop or revers any progression? If Prednisone,IVIG, Plasma Plasmapheresis not been the coarse of action, I’d look for another Dr. I went to MAYO in 84 and they even refused to use the word GB, but yea there is nerve conduction damage go home and maybe try Plasma Plasmapheresis I did and we had to borrow a machine from the wonderful organization RED CROSS. A Kidney necrologist Dr knew about separation the red cells but he did not have a machine or person to operate the machine. Again RED CROSS found a qualified Nurse and one of their persons to observe her and see that the hospital closet assigned to us was adequate. It worked for about 2 years. In all 8 times, I ran out of good places for a central line. But thank GOD I’m 71 now with residuals (gapbrine, nerve stem problems) Lots of other 71 yr things but I can ride a recumbent bike for 5-7 miles in 1/2 hr. Thats 80 to 90 pumps per min. So hang in there, get another Dr’s opinion and pray to your maker.
