Doctor that I had first never differentiated between what I had specifically , just said yes, it is MG. My only symptom at that time was a droopy left eye lid. I now have generalized MG and Ocular. Had cataracts taken care of and film built up. The eye problems worsened so though early the eye doctor removed that. Continuing treatments havd definitely helped. Leaving from others how to listen and take care of my body is helping immensely. Rest is the prescription I forget to take. I want to be in control and do what I “want” to do. In both ocular and generalized this absolutely does not pay off! I’m learning!
