I had a severe case of Guillain-Barre many years ago. Did they do a spinal tap on her, to determine if there was a high percentage of protein in the spinal fluid? Just by reading what is going on with her, it would not seam that she has G.B.S, but another neurological issue. I hope you find support right here, since like my G.B. S., there is not a seperate support group. Please get another opinion, from another doctor, being told that it is a "funny virus that attacks the brain" is NOT good enough! Find another doctor, one with some empathy.
