Reply To: Please tell me your story…GBS vs. CIDP vs. other

It’s sometimes difficult to distinguish between GBS and CIDP (or something else) early on. GBS reaches maximum progression in eight weeks or less, typically a few weeks. But your symptoms are already somewhat atypical, as GBS typically (but not always) starts in the legs and progresses upward. In any case, one month is too soon to get an idea how it will proceed, I think.
