It is normal to have residuals after GBS, and some residuals may be permanent. As time passes, the rate of recovery slows. After three years, you may not see further recovery. I think I still had a bit of a tremor at two years, but by three years it is barely noticeable, even if it is not completely normal.

I don’t understand the immune system complaint. I have not had that experience and have not heard of it. It could just be normal variation which has nothing to do with GBS, unless you are taking immune suppressants.

As for exercise, it is important to pace yourself according to what is comfortable now, not to what you used to do. Perhaps hand exercises using Theraputty will help your tremor.
