Dixie, The easiest way to communicate the biggest differences between GBS and CIDP is that GBS hits hard and fast, while CIDP is a longer term chronic, variety. The damage to the body is very similar in the way that it is a demyelinating polyneuropathy, the main difference is the time frame of attack, and then recovery. Hopefully, as you recover from your GBs attack, you can regain most of your function and get back on the course again. Just be careful about stiff muscles that might not do what they did before . Maybe it will be easier to get rid of that slice !!
