Clinicians most often confuse botulism with a polyradiculoneuropathy, such as Guillain-Barre or Miller Fisher syndrome, myasthenia gravis or central nervous system disease (36) (see Table 2.14). In the United States, a cluster of cases of flaccid paralysis is more likely secondary to botulism than to GuiUain-Barre syndrome or polio. In addition, compared to other causes of flaccid paralysis, unique features of botulism include (36) ... 

Fisher syndrome has been associated with previous C. jejuni infection. In Miller Fisher syndrome, antibodies to the ganglioside GQlb have been shown to produce neuromuscular block and may in part explain the clinical signs of that disorder (Willison Yuki, 2002). 

Peripheral neuropathies, autoimmune. Acute or chronic inflammatory neuropathies leading to demyelination and axonal damage of nerves and nerve roots associated with high-titred autoantibodies against gangliosides (e.g. Guillain-Barre syndrome, Miller-Fisher syndrome, acute sensory ataxic neuropathy).
