I'm one of those who believe that ignorance is not a bliss, and rather prefer ''knowledge is power'' - so forgive me being frank:
* I know of two people who have had Guillain-Barre, they were hospitalised and it was serious, but they both pulled through and are ok. So yes it is rare like your GP said, but it does happen (like to my two friends). NHS choices describes its signs and symptoms, but the same can be caused by other illnesses like tick borne illnesses. So to empower yourself, and feel in charge of your health and wellbeing you may find help:
* with pins&needles by taking vitamin Bs (all the various 'numbers') and to help with facial muscle twitching (and/or night time leg cramps, and fatigue) magnesium (many people are deficient).
* have you ever had a blood test to check your thyroid?
Kind regards
