Does General Myasthenia Gravis Also Affect Your Eyes I.e. Droopy Eyelids And Double Vision Or Do You Have To Be Diagnosed With Both?
I have Ocular MG. My neck, arms, legs are always weak.
I believe that's what is happening to me but its slow like cramps in my feet and my head and neck feel like I have a heavy weight on them especially walking long distances I don't see my nephrologist until the end of October, you know I didn't feel this bad until I started taking Pyridostigmine 3 x a day and had to deal with some of the terrible side effects , when they told me they had medicine that would help the effects I thought oh great it will be like taking a Tylenol , boy was I fooled.
