After reading all of the posts and all of my interactions with hospital staff I have come to the conclusion that I am either; A. extremely lucky, B. extremely Blessed, or C. a generous combination of A and B. Over Christmas I was down with a bad cold that just hung on. I stayed home and wad in bed by 9pm new years eve. New years day I had a bit of a balance issue and a little double vision. it was worse on Saturday, so , thinking I had a inner ear infection from the cold, I went to urgent care. They sent me to emergency. Emergency did a CAT scan and drew a LOT of Blood samples. They concluded inner ear infection and sent me home with antibiotics and instructions to see the eye doctors if the vision did not clear up in a week. Sunday I was worse, but the sore throat had the popping in the ear had cleared up. Monday I was reeling around like a drunken Creation and unable to function with both eyes open. 3 hours in emergency and they concluded Guillian Barre Syndrome. I was sent to a room and given I.V. treatment. I was told it would get worse before it got better (it didn't). They took it very seriously, checking my lung function every 4 hours. I had 3 doctors listed in my board and my nurse set up her nurses station on a desk outside of my room. 4 days of treatment where I was unable to hold down food. Thursday I was transferred to the rehab unit. The receiving nurse said that I Was the first one of these patients that she had ever had still walking when I came in. 1 week of rehab for balance and I was released to Family where there would be someone around 24/7. I am home on my own now, still can't drive because of the double vision, but doing well. They say 2 to 4 weeks for the double vision to go away.
