Guillain-Barre Syndrome
Understanding autoimmune nerve disorder, treatment, and recovery
What is Guillain-Barre Syndrome?
Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks the peripheral nerves, causing weakness, tingling, and potentially paralysis. It often follows infections and can progress rapidly over days to weeks. While most people recover, severe cases require intensive care and rehabilitation.
