I have just found out that my brother has this and in a severe form. It appears to be the body's immune system attacking the nerves causing paralysis.
As with most things, inflammation is involved which sends you down the path to anti-oxidants. Does anyone have some knowledge of it? I would like to know.
It seems fit young men can fall with it too:
