Have had double vision for three years. My new ophalmologist (old one retired) was quite concerned about it and sent to to a neuro-opthalmologist at the local university medical school. He's been evaluating me for MG. Two blood tests were negative and now my SFEMG was abnormal, but not conclusive for MG. The neurologist who did the SFEMG said could be, but he couldn't prove it--the abnormalities could all be explained by my diabetes.

Today my new pulmonologist said my lungs were fine and would not explain my shortness of breath, but that I was hypoventilating as my muscles are too weak. She's sending me for a sleep study (said I have apnea) to get a CPAP, gave me a brochodilator to try (probably have mild asthma), and is sending me for nutritional counseling to help me lose weight and pulmonary rehab to help my breathing muscles.

So I have 5 weeks till my next appointment with the neuro-opthalmologist and am wondering what else could all this be--the droopy eyelid, the double vision, and the shortness of breath? I thought the SFEMG was definitive for MG, if done correcctly, and mine was quite thorough and seemed so. Oh, yes, I also have slurred or raspy speech at times and occaisional trouble chewing. Ideas, anyone?
