How Can Guillain-Barre Syndrome Be Treated?
Hi:
My cousin has been diagnosed with Ginia Buree..I may be spelling this incorrectly.
She is in a hospital being cared for in Massachusetts. She was transferred from the Leahy Clinic.
She is stable right now she is able to talk and move some of her body, but she cannot stand or walk and her hands are not moving properly. We were told this all came about from a 3 part injection given by her family physician. In other words she had much more given than for a Flue. Can you give me more infor regarding this diagnosis.

yes GUiLLIAN BARRE SUNDROME has been associated with influenza and rabies vaccine
it can also occur due to a diaarhoea infection of C.jejeni bacteria.
but its an autoimmune disorder which is treated with steroids and immunosuppressive agents.
in severe cases, it is treated with ivig or plasmapharesis.
however, i would like to tell you that its not the doctors fault who gave those vaccinations
its an adverse event which is completely unpredictable.
i hope it helps.
thank you.
