Does Anybody Notice Their Symptoms Flaring Up For Days After One Symptom Flares Up?

A MGteam Member asked a question 💭
Mesquite, NV

Went to see the Deadpool movie on Sunday. Sitting through a movie is hard because my eyelids start drooping and my double vision. Today’s Tuesday and I still feel that my whole body is noticeably weaker, my eyelids are drooping, and I’m way more tired. I should mention besides having constant weakness in my hands and fatigue, all my other symptoms don’t tend to flare up on a regular day-to-day basis.
