Hello,
This may be GBS(Guillain Barre syndrome).
This is an autoimmune disease of the nervous system but it can be triggered following an infection.
Many of the patients recover well with little lasting problems.
But in some it may turn dangerous.
Discuss with your doctor to exclude conditions causing Acute Flaccid paralysis.
