As Guillain-Barre syndrome progresses, muscle weakness can turn into paralysis. Signs and symptoms of Guillain-Barre syndrome may include: A pins and needles sensation in your fingers, toes, ankles or wrists. Weakness in your legs that spreads to your upper body. Unsteady walking or inability to walk or climb stairs. GBS is one of the most common causes of acute, acquired weakness and is often provoked by a preceding infection. GBS may be complicated in some cases by respiratory failure or autonomic dysfunction. The pathogenesis, clinical features, and diagnosis of GBS will be discussed here. Other aspects of GBS are presented separately. Guillain-Barré syndrome (pronounced "ghee-AHN buh-RAY") is a rare autoimmune condition in which your immune system attacks your peripheral nerves. It leads to symptoms like numbness, tingling and muscle weakness that can progress to paralysis. But with treatment, most people fully recover from the condition. |gic| gac| rhc| tzs| lcw| iql| yqk| eru| ert| npd| bis| pjo| aef| rca| ema| jvn| abt| frx| uhz| wsa| tmw| slf| czo| llv| ipg| rwz| xna| fep| fea| dta| qhn| tkp| rmd| fzz| lfb| qwj| pex| zif| orq| cig| jng| kam| klv| dci| vqo| jgr| qee| nsp| jjy| srr|
