I got up one Monday morning with very painful shine splints. 10 days later, I was in the hospital. . <br /><br />It also seems to be much more common than the statistics say. There is even a therapist at my physical therapist's office that has worked with BGS recovery.mwilliams1220https://www.blogger.com/profile/13584142934595165752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736496181232829200.post-81955151410500395132010-03-31T20:52:12.997-04:002010-03-31T20:52:12.997-04:00Interesting that you say that your GBS was tagged ...Interesting that you say that your GBS was tagged atypical - in that it took weeks instead of days. This is an area that still confuses me. My dr's kept/keep telling me that it was a quick onset thing. I didn't have any identifiable virus/sickness that I could think of. The best I could come up with was a sore throat around NY. (they pounced on that and that's now apparently 'the visus cause'...). However I personally think that mine had been in a simmering state since mid-Nov 09, reaching 'rubber legs' state the week of 5th Jan 10. I have read other patient stories in which some have indicated theirs has come on slowly over a period of months. So my Dr's tell me one thing, but my instinct and other patients indicate otherwise. Probably of no consequence now, but still interesting to compare other people's experiences.Vintagekathttp://devoted2distraction.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
