What is the prognosis? The prognosis for most individuals with Miller Fisher syndrome is good. In most cases, recovery begins within 2 to 4 weeks of the onset of symptoms, and may be almost complete within 6 months. Some individuals are left with residual deficits. Relapses may occur rarely (in less than 3 percent of cases). What research is being done?

Online Counselling Service Miller Fisher Syndrome (MFS) Miller Fisher Syndrome is a variant form of Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS). GBS is more common than MFS but is still relatively unusual but becoming more common than it used to be. They are both diseases in which the bodies central nervous system is attacked by the bodies own auto-immune system, which suddenly decides that the myelin sheath that acts both as a nerve insulator and fast impulse carrier is a foreign body and attacks it, causing inflammation and destruction. The difference between MFS and GBS is that different nerve groups are affected such that paralysis in GBS tends to start in the legs and move up, where in MFS it starts in the head, affecting eye muscles, balance and slowly descends to the neck arms etc. MFS does not generally have the life threatening aspects of GBS but can be very difficult to live through with double vision, nausea, weakness, difficulty walking, light sensitivity and pain which can go on for months. The cause is still unknown but about two-thirds of cases occur after a viral infection, either one you know about such as a sore throat, diarrhea, flu or cold, or one that is subsequently confirmed by blood tests. The viral infection may be one of the herpes viruses, such as the Epstein-Barr virus. But GBS may also follow a bacterial infection. Guillain-Barré is also sometimes associated with medical procedures. Five percent to 10 percent of cases occur after an operation. Age is not a factor, people of any age can get it and it can reoccur in a small percentage of cases.

12. Baylor Neurology Case Of The Month Botulism and miller fisher syndrome can present in a similar fashion with cranialnerve The pathology of miller fisher syndrome has long been disputed. http://www.bcm.edu/neurology/challeng/pat19/summary.html

Patient #19 Summary and Discussion Mary Ellen Vanderlick, M.D. Resident, Department of Neurology Diagnosis: Miller Fisher Syndrome Botulism and Miller Fisher syndrome can present in a similar fashion with cranial nerve involvement and pupillary changes. If food-borne, botulism typically occurs as a descending paralysis. The patient is often sick prior to the onset of symptoms and tends to eat canned goods. Having a low vital capacity, pupillary changes, and a normal spinal fluid following symptoms that occurred two to three days before, botulism was a strong consideration. EMG can be useful for the differential and usually shows reduced CMAP amplitudes, normal nerve conductions, and post-tetanic facilitation. Stool or serum will be positive for botulinum toxin in adults; adults tend to ingest the preformed toxin while infants ingest the spores of Clostridium botulinum Imaging studies and CSF should be normal. Adult botulinum poisoning is often fatal if untreated. Other considerations: Myasthenia gravis may present with rapid-onset of bulbar and respiratory weakness but without autonomic dysfunction. Patients often complain of diplopia, but rarely have complete ophthalmoplegia. There is usually limb weakness as well. Tensilon and EMG testing were not compatible with this diagnosis.

The ataxia is produced by peripheral sensory nerve dysfunction and not by cerebellar injury. Facial weakness and sensory loss may also occur. The process is mediated by autoantibodies directed against a component of myelin found in peripheral nerves.

Guillain-Barr© Syndrome Support Group Registered Charity 327314 GUIDE Miller Fisher Syndrome This series of guides is produced by the Guillain-Barr© Syndrome Support Group. We are a registered charity that supports those affected by the Guillain-Barr© syndrome (GBS) and related conditions in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. The related conditions include chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) and Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS). Our guides are easily downloaded from our Web site at www.gbs.org.uk in PDF format and may be both read and printed using free Adobe Reader software. Alternatively, you can request printed copies from our office. Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) is also known as: The Miller Fisher variant [of GBS] Fisher or Fisher’s syndrome acute idiopathic ophthalmologic neuropathy syndrome of ophthalmoplegia, ataxia and areflexia Related conditions are: GBS with ophthalmoplegia Bickerstaff’s brainstem encephalopathy acute ophthalmoparesis In 1956, Charles Miller Fisher, a Canadian whose specialisation was stroke, described three patients with acute external ophthalmoplegia (eye paralysis), sluggish pupil reflexes, ataxia (lack of balance) and areflexia (absent tendon reflexes). Two patients had no weakness; the other had a facial palsy and possible weakness. All three recovered spontaneously. Because some patients with GBS had ophthalmoplegia and there were other similarities, Dr Fisher concluded that these patients had suffered a disorder akin to GBS. [Fisher CM.
