Reply To: Treating GBS in Middletown, NY (USA) – Just diagnosed

Thank you GH. Her Dr. is a neurologist who said he treats about 2 dozen cases a year.

I will look for the book you refer to.

Can you or anyone on the list point me to resources that discuss the likelihood or commonality of progression, that the symptoms or effects might get worse before they get better? (E.g., she can walk now and is not paralyzed and does not need assisted breathing. Might the disease progress during treatment and she might end up with paralysis, and needing assisted breathing?)

Thank you,
Matt
