Default I live in NH too

My father started having problems talking back in July this year, doctors thought he had a stroke, couldnt confirm because they couldnt do an MRI due to my Dad's pacemaker. Long story short, 5 months later and my Dad chokes, can hardly breathe, cannot walk, cannot take meds. It took going to the emergency room 3 times (last being last night) to get them to wake up and do something. A cardiologist came in and did some testing and said he thinks its MG. Got home last night and googled MG. OMG..he has every single symptom. He has slight pneumonia because food particles got in his lungs so he spent the night at hospital. Even though I am still very very scared and nervous for my Dad what a relief to find a diagnosis. I know we are on a long road of recovery, my Dad is 79 and I am hoping he is strong enough to get through this. I live in NH too and for some reason just wanted to share this with you.
