Guillain Barre Syndrome

The cause of Guillain-Barre Syndrome is still unknown but it happens when the immune system affects the function of nerves. This condition causes weakness and the symptoms start in the arms and legs but can easily spread throughout the whole body. Extreme cases of Guillain-Barre Syndrome can cause paralysation. Guillain-Barre Syndrome is a rare condition and the first signs are unnoticeable. Symptoms include needle-like pain in the extremities, weakness, fatigue, extreme pain in the lower back, fast heartbeat, instability, affected eye movement, and difficulty in breathing, speaking, and eating. Guillain-Barre Syndrome can spread throughout the body in just four weeks from the first onset of symptoms.
