Abstract
The novel corona virus has wreaked havoc in both developing and developed countries. Therespiratory effects of the virus were well reported early on but with each passing day, effects of
covid-19 on others systems came to light. In this report, we bring forward the series of Guillainbarre
syndrome (GBS) cases with the varying presentation in covid infected patients. In our cases,
GBS either occurred during ongoing covid symptoms or within the two weeks of resolution of covid
related pulmonary symptoms. Through this case series, we are reporting one case each of garden
variety, AMAN variety and Miller Fisher variant of GBS. We aim to supplement the already
existing limited data available on other systemic illnesses associated with covid-19 and to make
physicians aware of the potential neurological diagnosis in covid cases.
