    I had what I would say was a mild case however my symptoms did escalate to the point of hospitalization and IVIG treatment. I was mostly recovered when I left the hospital 6 days after admission, a week and a half from the start of symptoms. I followed up with my neuro a month later and she did an EMG, which she said showed my nerves were completely healed and did not indicate CIDP.
    I would push for an EMG, maybe that would provide more info for you.

    Glad to hear someone else has a similar case to myself. My only limitation left is tingling in my fingers and toes. The tingling forces me to stop exercising when I need to put my hands over my head or use weights. I need to take lots of breaks.
    It’s frustrating but I keep telling myself how it could be much worse.

    My neurologist “really wanted” for me to get the EMG, which they only do in the doctor’s offices around here. Those tests aren’t done in the hospital. I really wish they would have just put me there right away.
    As far as the GI issues, my whole family seemed to have the bug. It hit myself and my 1 year old son the hardest. We do not think that it was food related however.
