As far as I know, it doesn't affect them at all. The symptoms of GBS include:

  • Weakness, tingling, and loss of sensation in the legs that progress up into the arms
  • Muscle weakness
  • Numbness and tingling
  • Pain in the buttocks and lower back
  • Facial weakness
  • Difficulty speaking or putting words in order (dysphasia)
  • Fluctuations of heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature
  • Urinary difficulties
  • Reduced or absent reflexes

In as many as 25 percent of cases, the muscles that support breathing become too weak, and ventilatory assistance (i.e. respirator) is needed for a time. Up to 10 percent of people need support with food (IV or tube feeding) because facial and swallowing muscles become too weak to eat by mouth.
