Hi Bonnie, I moved your message about developing Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a rare disorder where the body's immune system damages nerve after Covid infection to this existing discussion.

Bonnie, how are you doing in rehab? Dealing with level 10 pain in your upper back must be really hard. Are you getting physio to help? Or other approaches?

I am recovering well from Covid- related Guillane-Barre (GBS.). The back pain which was a 10 level- only occurring at night- has self resolved. I am walking again and driving- most normal activities so this is a great relief after the lower body paralysis. I attribute my recovery to a quick diagnosis, immediate IVIG treatment and being in good shape physically when it started. GBS is very scary but I understand most people fully recover in time.
