This is straight from memory from college days. It is a nervous disorder that effects the myelin sheaths that cover your nerves. Cases can be severe or mild and usually resolve on their own with little or no long term illness. As with all illnesses, severe cases can cause long term damage. Also, as with most nervous system disorders, there is no cure per se. I honestly can not remember how you get it, but any medical website can tell you that. I think it's usually a complication or secondary illness to something else.

I'm AN legitimate EDWARD CULLEN JUNKIE!!!!! Had been seeing that I first picked up Twilight in 2005. How do i do know? Simple. At the least ten instances, evryr day from day one, I see whatever that strikes a chord in my memory of the seris. It is an addiction that I on no account want to quit. Between books, i'm at a low equivelent with the low Bella felt in New Moon. It helps to reread the books (I've learn every ebook in the seris ten instances), however it still does not compensate for the fun of a new, Edward and Bella book. I'm suffering from TSS. I suppose that makes me a masochist. Karis F.

Hey,
In most cases, erectile dysfunction is caused by something physical. Sometimes it's caused by psycological problems. The brain plays a key role in triggering the series of physical events that cause an erection, starting with feelings of sexual excitement.You can learn more about this problem and about natural remedies here http://erectiledysfunction.toptips.org. It's an eye opening site!

I know a little, it is a disease that affects the nervous system, I think they can detect an antibody in the cell, the name of the disease is after he person who detected the antibody. To my knowledge it may progress at what rate I do not know, may be a medical dictionary will help.
Sorry that I cannot be more helpful.

yes it is called guillain-barre'syndrome-----this effects muscles--making them weak--it starts from the lower extremities and works its way up == in other words it works from the ground up.
in time it can effect your lungs making it hard for one to breath--

on the flip side of this disease is another one called myasthenia gravis --this effects muscles making then weak and it works from the mind down ==it can also effect your lungs making it hard to breath in time as the disease worsens.
