Reply To: Recovery

It is frustrating, no question about that. My case was classified as CIDP, not GBS, but resembles GBS more than the slowly progressing or relapsing forms of CIDP. I am a year and a half out of the hospital, and walking fairly well without assistive devices, but cannot run and may never, it seems, due to wobbly knees. Some people make a complete recovery, however. It depends on the nature and extent of nerve damage. All you can do is to work at rebuilding strength and balance and hope for the best.

Are you getting professional physical therapy?
