I am now so paranoid about G.B.S. My boyfriend thought he had a pinched nerve or had hurt his back or neck somehow when he lost weakness in his legs,feet,hands. Guillon-Barray syndrome is not easy to diagnose. A spinal tap is necessary-if it shows a high level of protein then good chance it's GBS-and you should see a neurologist asap. GBS can affect the lungs and some people end up on a ventilator. Hope this helps, Janie
