Being a clinician, every case is quite challenging until a right diagnosis is made. The patient aged 28yrs old primigravidae had seizures and blurring of vision (PRES- Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome) on 48hrs after delivery. She subsequently developed weakness of both lower and upper limbs being diagnosed as Guillian Bare Syndrome. Here a mother in her postnatal period having a seizure itself is a high risk, adding to it she had neuropathy mentioned above. She was managed rightly by the team of neurology including Dr. Nemichandra, helping the mother to recover from the illness wherein both central and peripheral nervous system were involved. This story would have had the complicated end if not managed well and led to  weakness of diaphragmatic muscles and respiratory arrest or death. This is just an example of the team or the Department of neurology.
