Weakness in your arms is
absolutely on the list of main MG symptoms! Just google "myasthenia gravis" and you'll see. I can't imagine what the new neurologist was thinking. Maybe you described the weakness in a way that didn't sound typical of MG to her? Or maybe she thinks that since you tested negative for the AChR antibodies, you must have MuSK, even though you haven't been tested for it yet? If she thinks that, she's also wrong, because there are many of us here--including me--who have a diagnosis of MG but have never had a positive antibody test of any kind.
