He says MG doesn't cause pain then how can he be certain I have it when I also have pain?
He also says that MG doesn't cause brain lesions, but my MRI shows spot. He said it could be from a migraine. Basically he saw my drooping eyelid and couldn't get past MG.
I'd be ok with MG dx, if I wasn't having shooting pain while he is saying MG doesn't cause pain. Oh yes the blood test for MG was normal also. I'm so confused.

There is an MG forum on NT. Maybe you can ask some of our MG members about their experience with pain and MG.
The lesion could be from a migraine as your dr. mentioned. That does happen and when I had my first MRI and it showed 3 lesions, migraines and viruses as well as small trauma (like bumping my head) were all discussed as possibilities.
