Symptom narrative

After 6 weeks: Sudden nocturnal numbing of arm from left shoulder to wrist & 2 fingers (1 & 2). The thumb had near zero movement toward any of the other fingers. Later OT sessions resolved this fully. But 9 yrs later in early 2023, I spend the next 3yrs struggling with daily wrenched calf muscles between home > bus > train, but incorrectly assumed that it was related to now inactive DVT in each leg since 2018. And this prolonged daily wrenching of calf muscles seems to be resolved (somehow), I worry when a next neuro muscular attack to my limbs will occur. Finally, I state this concern only because OT specialists in 2014 and now this month have cautioned me about Guillain-Barre.
