Severe MG Flare...

A MGteam Member asked a question 💭
Cincinnati, OH

Maybe 3 - 4 times in the past year I had a severe flare. No breathing issues, just the worse fatigue ever. Which is saying a LOT since normal fatigue is difficult. In each case I become so fatigued I can't hardly function and must lay down and put my CPAP on. I quickly fall asleep for an hour or two when I wake up I almost feel drugged. With a foggy brain and little memory of the past several hours. I slowly come out of the brain fog and then just feel the normal fatigue the rest of the day.
