Hello! It is interesting to read. I use GuixSD for 2 months. I have not accumulated problems and solutions, but an issue with gcrypt and hash appeared here. 
The luck was there, I only can show you a link: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2018-09/msg00153.html <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2018-09/msg00153.html>
I think the main feature of guix - the roll back function - rests there. 
May be you could choose most previous kernel in grub and then ran
`guix system roll-back`. Would it repair your system?
