Is something common for chronic GBS or CIDP folks. I've got CIDP and only got my first and pretty bad 'set-back/relapse' last year. It was a whopper tho.
Mine seems to be mostly sensory, but some muscular as well. I hate that muscular aspect? But it got me to be qualified for IVIG which has helped immensely.
PN and GBS and CIDP are all very 'indiscrimanate' when it comes to ages? It gets older, middle-age, teens and kids....depending on the sub-types of the diagnosis.
I've got to ask? Where are you at mobility wise, and functionally? Not to mention pain-wise? Are numbnesses/weaknesses progressing? These are key things to articulate to a doc who mite be trying to diagnose you or treat you. Descriptions? Short and sweet! Numb more up to 'here', weak more to 'here', swallowing 'harder'...get my drift? Pain? Difficult one but the one I've used is like living under a 'High-tension-power wire tower'! There's always a 'humm'... Yes? No? Maybe, Sometimes? Only you can tell and describe.
Once you post 5 times? you can PM any of us w/questions? But it's really better for you to put it out to this great group of folks and that their collective minds can give YOU info to help you get diagnosed.
I don't think anyone here WANTS PN? But we do care enuf to help you and others! Why should we all have to constantly reinvent wheels?
