Raw milk campylobacter

Symptoms of a Campylobacter infection, called campylobacteriosis, include fever, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea. Usually, these symptoms develop within two to five days of exposure. For people with compromised immune systems, these infections can be life-threatening.

Complications of campylobacteriosis include reactive arthritis, which causes joint pain and swelling; and Guillian-Barre syndrome which causes muscle weakness and paralysis that can last for weeks or months. Some people experience permanent nerve damage. About 5 percent of people who develop Guillian-Barre syndrome die.
