Guillain-Barré Syndrome characterized by the rapid onset of weakness and, often, paralysis of the legs, arms, breathing muscles and face. GBS is the most common cause of rapidly acquired paralysis in the United States today, affecting one to two people in every 100,000.

The type of oils and fats that you eat is very important...

While modern medicine claims no cure right now, many 'deseases' like this are diet related. I'd suggest doing lots of research and radically altering and improving your diet.

Yes, A doctor is a good place to go
I have seen an interesting documentary on Crohn's Disease.
It was treated by new zealand researchers I believe using the eggs of intestinal worms. The researchers believe it gives the immune system something to focus on rather than attacking the sufferer. A patient that was interviewed made a full recovery and considered himself very lucky he had undergone the treatment. I have included a link to some other reasearchers working in the field
just use google to search for
crohns disease worm intestinal
and you will find information.....good luck

When was the last time you had a checkup? You need to make an appointment to see a doctor. Do it today. No one here can diagnose your problem! Only a doctor can do that.
Good luck!

As much as I hate to point it out, yahoo answers really isn't the place to go for medical issues, especially when it is something serious like this.
You should go see a neurologist as soon as possible and get treated for whatever it is.
Here, you're going to find a bunch of crackpots who think they know everything, or a bunch of kids who will just give you stupid answers anyhow. Go to the neurologist.

I love how people automatically assume that because they refuse to go to a doctor for what's wrong with their body, Yahoo Answers must be a good place to start.
