I am an OTA who met a client working as a traveler for a company doing Home therapy. The client at that time was very  weak and almost became a quadrupligic.after 3 yrs of being on a  limbo with test after test, recently  the coupel went to Baltimore to have other test performed. In one of those  test, he had high protein in kidneys, The specialist they saw is a Guillian Barre Sydrom expert, because they also said he might have "that"  but they are not sure. After 2 years of therapy (OT, PT and a sports trainer) he almost regaing UB and LB strenght, muscle and was abel to do his ADL'S and walk with a walker. About 5 moths ago he started to dicline to the point that  he  is lossing his muscles, strenght  and can barely do his ADL'S. Also this family is lossing faith with all DR's because there is "no answer to his dead end street." I am concerned and not sure what to do next to help this family  which by the way they money is not an issue.  
Sincerely a concerned therapist
