Its usual picture is that in the absence of any disorders on the part of consciousness, cranial nerves, sphincters and sensitivity, symmetrical paralysis of the muscles of the neck, trunk and limbs occurs from time to time with complete extinction of tendon reflexes and a sharp decrease in electrical excitability.
