In Guillain-Barré syndrome the body's immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous system. Usually Guillain-Barré occurs a few days or weeks after the patient has had symptoms of a respiratory or gastrointestinal viral infection. The body's immune system begins to attack the body itself, causing what is known as an autoimmune disease.

The disease varies in speed of onset with children reaching their maximal disability over a matter of days or, much more gradually over a period of up to four weeks. Initial symptoms consist of tingling, numbness, unsteadiness and progressive weakness usually affecting the feet and then the hands and gradually progressing up the limbs. At the height of their illness about a quarter of children remain able to walk but the other three quarters loose their mobility and about 16% need to be artificially ventilated on an intensive care unit.The condition can occur at any age but there appear to be peak ages of onset in childhood at four years and twelve years.

Recovery usually begins in two to three weeks and may be accompanied by pain and tingling in the limbs. Most children are able to walk unaided by six weeks and most are free from symptoms by about three months. Minorities of patients have some residual problems but these children are usually still able to walk unaided. In general children make a much better recovery than adults.

TREATMENT HISTORY

Patient was taking Tab Vexx 20 O.D., Tab Uroton 25 mg B.D., Tab Methycopal 500 micro g O.D.
Even after hospital stay and 1 month of regular medication, the condition of the patient had not improved much.
Considering the symptoms of paralysis and urinary incontinence as chief presenting complaints, CAUSTICUM 1M,4 doses were prescribed to be taken on alternate days on 1st September and patient started improving thereafter.
On 5th October Patient complained of jerking (+++) of feet. He also gets fatigued easily. Urinary incontinence was better. So RHUS TOX 1M, 4 doses on alternate days and ZINCUM MET 30 t.d.s. were prescribed.
Patient responded very well and on 3rd nov.he was able to come to my clinic for the first time. He was much better and was able to take few steps without walker even.
C/o jerking of feet: better, more in left leg. Now he was also able to control the urge for urine. Bed Wetting: frequency reduced to almost once in a week. Pain in legs: absent.  C/O Headache after exertion. He has now started sweating on left side of body also. No more pain in nape of neck. No more tingling. Muscle tone building up. Same prescription was repeated for quite some time as patients condition was improving.
In between medicine like EQUISETUM H and GELSEMIUM were also given for associated complaints.
INVESTIGATIONS
Motor nerve conduction studies repeated on 12th November showed- FUC of GBS showing Good Reinnervation on right side and early Reinnervation changes in left quadriceps and no reinnervation in left tibialis anterior.
Now after 7 months of regular treatment, patient is absolutely fine .It is such a pleasure to see Mr. Varun walking on his own to my clinic without any help. His parents are so elated with joy as prior to this treatment they were very apprehensive whether their son would ever be able to go to school or not. Not only did he go to school but also appeared in his 10th Board exams and did well.
