I would like to discuss any experiences you have had with Guillain-barre syndrome, how bad you had it, etc.

Thread... Maybe you could tell us all more about what all is/has been happening to you? There are a LOT of good folks with brains here who can help in many ways. Do read the 'stickies' -also called 'Important Links' - there's lots of good stuff there! Just click on any 'blue' reference site.
Keep up the reading and the research! - j |

Hi prairiemary.
We have two friends who had Guillain Barre Syndrome. The one got it after having had the Swine Flu vaccine. She turned out fine enough. The other one got it when his immune system was run down with so much stress, a bad cold, etc. Too much on the plate. The only thing he could do was blink his eyes. He did come back but not to being as he was before. He is limited some now as to what he does. It really changed his life. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info,Kitt, I very rarely get to hear from anyone who has had G.B.s, sorry your friend's life changed so much, its hard to accept for awhile, how it happens thru no fault of our own, just one of lifes many challenges.I could only move me eyes also, the rest just shut down.I either got it from a cold, or from eating chicken that had bacteria in it, likely the chicken, because they say if it was the chicken, then a person gets it very bad, and is paralysed for longer, with alot more problems, and are left with more remnents of the illness.No one really knows for sure, but it is a very scary thing to have to go thru.Does your friend come on here to talk? I would love to hear their story.

Hi prairiemary.
No, neither of them are on here. It is funny how things affect people differently. Hope all is well.
