Saw ophthalmologist today. His response was, "OMG! Nobody is treating you for this? You need help right away!" I told him this was me feeling much better. His response was very validating.

He saw my double vision (my eyes, especially the left is pretty bonkers right now), ptosis, slurred speech, and weak neck muscles. His diagnosis was Myasthenia Gravis. He said its pretty obvious when you see it. Is this true? I thought so, but now a doctor is telling me this.

He called the neurologist and told her his findings. My appointment was bumped to next Wednesday instead of the end of the month.

Step in the right direction...wish me luck!

Thank you all again for your support!!!! I wouldn't have gone to the eye doctor if it hadn't been suggested.
