He's been to the family doctor 3 or 4 times, had x-rays, blood work and a calcium cardio scoring scan/test. When I was feeling bad, I felt like I had trouble breathing and my chest was tight. He had some of that, too. The doc sent me in for the cardio scan and we both had it done. Both of us are clean as a whistle.

He's getting worse by the day - the tingling & weakness is spreading. I'm trying to get him into a good neurologist.

Any ideas?
Guillain-Barre starts with an infection. Have you considered that?
