Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by neuropathy. Some of the symptoms of this disorder are weakness in legs, unsteady walking, feeling achy, shooting pain, high pulse, and labored breathing. Guillain-Barré syndrome has many different causes, and the majority of them are bacterial or viral in nature. Campylobacter, influenza virus, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, Zika virus, Hepatitis A/B/C/E, HIV, mycoplasma pneumonia, surgery, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, vaccinations (very rarely), and COVID-19 infections are all known to trigger the syndrome. Although these can trigger Guillain-Barré syndrome, the actual underlying cause of this disorder is unknown. It does not spread between people and it is not a heritable illness.

Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by neuropathy. Some of the symptoms of this disorder are weakness in legs, unsteady walking, feeling achy, shooting pain, high pulse, and labored breathing. Guillain-Barré syndrome has many different causes, and the majority of them are bacterial or viral in nature. Campylobacter, influenza virus, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, Zika virus, Hepatitis A/B/C/E, HIV, mycoplasma pneumonia, surgery, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, vaccinations (very rarely), and COVID-19 infections are all known to trigger the syndrome. Although these can trigger Guillain-Barré syndrome, the actual underlying cause of this disorder is unknown. It does not spread between people and it is not a heritable illness.
There are four main types of Guillain-Barré syndrome: acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, Miller Fisher syndrome, Acute motor axonal neuropathy, and acute motor-sensory axonal neuropathy.
