Glad you are on the mend. Be patient. Do the PT. I had it, was hospitalized for 3 months. PT 5 days a week for a year. But after the PT I was 95%. Now I'm back to my old self. Good Luck to you.

Thanks for the kind words.

Been home from Hospital and Rehab Center for almost 4 months and in-home therapy is ending this week. Transferring to out-patient next week. Met the therapist and she has experience with GBS and other neuro-muscular conditions.

Wheel chair is pretty much history and I've been using crutches, canes, or a 4 wheel walker depending on the distance.
