I also have a long standing diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) which will also cause double vision. My MRI does not currently indicate MS as the cause. So for right now my current disease, Multiple Sclerosis, is the most likely cause but MG has not been taken off the table.

Just thought I would share how complicated finding answers can be sometimes

Take care.
Thank you for your input, of course MS crossed my mind but it hasn't been discussed by my doctors, i suppose because of my clear MRI I only had an MRI of my head, the spinal cord has never been imaged, i have wondered if that would be helpful.
Thank you
Edith
