Good catch, SLee! Yeah, even a small dose of steroids can affect the MG tests (antibody tests too).

Only very few people have just ocular MG. Progression to generalized MG can happen slowly or quickly or somewhere in between.

Please research steroids, if you are diagnosed with MG. The side effects over time can cause other conditions and steroids are very hard to withdraw from. MG experts are now saving steroids for during or post-crisis.

I hope the test goes well for you!
