Too hard to say: It's very complicated - you'll have to check with your neurologist. In the meanwhile, http://www.Ncbi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmed/17290096.

Nerve weakness: There is a variant which causes eye and coordination problems, but outcome should be quite similar in general if timely therapy is initiated. Your description certainly raises a question of chronic guillain-barre, which would do better with ivig once monthly. Suggest you have a followup emg, possible spinal tap, and get a treatment program started. Maybe, a second opinion?
