It
                           is characterized by abnormal muscle coordination, paralysis of the eye muscles, and absence of the tendon reflexes. Like Guillain-Barré
                           syndrome, symptoms may be preceded by a viral illness. Additional symptoms include generalized muscle weakness and respiratory
                           failure. The majority of individuals with Miller Fisher syndrome have a unique antibody that characterizes the disorder.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/miller_fisher.htm"><P id="toc"><STRONG>Table of Contents (click to jump to sections)</STRONG><BR id="XSpLit103" /><A href="#What_is">What   is Miller Fisher Syndrome?</A><BR id="XSpLit107" /><A href="#Is_there_any_treatment">Is there any treatment?</A><BR /><A href="#What_is_the_prognosis">What is  the prognosis?<IMG class="linkscent-icon" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/favicon.ico" clueid="favIcon" /><IMG width="16" height="16" class="linkscent-icon" clueid="anchor" title="This is a link to part of http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/miller_fisher.htm" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/chrome://interclue/content/cluecore/skins/default/pixel.gif" /><IMG class="linkscent-icon" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/chrome://interclue/content/cluecore/skins/default/pixel.gif" clueid="clueIcon" /></A><BR /><DIV><A href="#What_research_is_being_done">What research is being done?<IMG class="linkscent-icon" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/favicon.ico" clueid="favIcon" /><IMG width="16" height="16" class="linkscent-icon" clueid="anchor" title="This is a link to part of http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/miller_fisher.htm" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/chrome://interclue/content/cluecore/skins/default/pixel.gif" /><IMG class="linkscent-icon" src="http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/miller_fisher/chrome://interclue/content/cluecore/skins/default/pixel.gif" clueid="clueIcon" /></A></DIV><BR id="XSpLit108" /><A href="#Organizations">Organizations</A><BR /><A href="#Spanish Publications">Publicaciones en Español</A><BR /></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/97B3408D-CA2A-4681-B58F-C566F55AF4B1/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
