A) With Guillain-Barré syndrome, there is frequently a "stocking-glove" pattern-feeling as though stockings and gloves are being worn when they are not-with pain in the hands, feet, and legs. This is what the nurse should instruct the mother. Tactile hallucinations are not part of the disorder. Medications are not causing the client to feel like socks are being worn. Confusion is not part of the disorder.
