Sir I am 22+ boy from Bangladesh. Last 6th April 2014 my both hands and legs are became very weak. I can t move them then I hospitalized by a neurologist. Then they say suspected (GBS). By the doctor s advice I have given by IVIG for 5 dose. now what should do I do?
As you been diagnosed with GBS and already under medical treatment I will advice to add on physical therapy on Routine basis as physical therapy will help you regain the strength in muscles and also research supports and clinical practice also supports the physical therapy for patients with GBS
In my clinical practice such cases are referred to physical therapy at home for regaining motor functions.
