I was diagnosed at 45 yrs of age. Mine was from either the trauma of a serious injury, or a chlorine tube that blew up in my face. It is not uncommon for hard contact sports players to get MG from what my Neuro and I researched. As well as extreme exposure to chlorine.

Every day I am on the Good Lord's wake up list is a good day for me. Wishing you a great day as well.

Hi Diane, Thank God you never were on the Repatha injection! My doctor signed me up on the Repatha Sure Click for $15.00 per month(some coupon at the time). I injected the poison in my body every two weeks for over a year, trusting my physician that it was helping me. All the time, my health just kept getting worse and worse, with no answers. I developed severe neuropathy in my feet, lost all my muscle mass, and could not walk a straight line most the time, along with severe muscle weakness and fatigue. When I was made aware that I possibly could have MG by my new neurologist, I immediatly stopped the Repatha injections. Yes, I do believe the statins prescribed to me, had everything to do my MG worsening.

I believe with more and more vaccines being given and the statins now being given more frequently, we will continue seeing more and more diagnosis of Myasthenia Gravis.
