To Mochacat (and Christine):

Christine stated her father in law has been evaluated by a PHYSIATRIST not a psychiatrist. A physiatrist is a medical doctor specializing in rehabilitation medicine. He is the perfect specialty for a recovering GBS patient or a CIDP or MS patient. However, I do agree, he has really no way to predict your FIL’s end state of recovery – especially so early in the game.
