My husband had gillian barre about 6 years ago, but thank God he has fully recovered. We have started an exercise program and our trainer wants him to take protein supplements. I know the protein level in the blood is part of the problem with Gillian Barre. Will this be an issue for him?

i was told that once you have had gillians-beret syndrome ,you're never out of the woods. someone we knew had this horrible disease.she recovered.then 10 years later it came back. but i do believe taking health matters into your own hands is imperative in the prevention of a reoccurrance.

Gilliam Barre syndrome is diagnosed by a hi level of protein in the spinal fluid, and is caused when the body starts attacking nerves in the muscles.

A protein supplement is like eating a all you can eat fish dinner, its nothing drastic and should not cause a problem.

Hi

(I am 42)
I had Gilliam Barre syndrome 17 years ago just after my son was born. The only side effect I have from the syndrome is my hands shake and I still numbness on certain parts of my legs. I wonder when I get older if I am going to be able to use my hands. People comment that they can see my hands shaking but sometimes they pain. What can you do to strengthin my hands. I try very had to keep heatlthy. Is there anything I should be taking to improve this

Thanks
R
