Hi! Oh I remember the days!! I was diagnosed during university and looking back at photos etc I probably was suffering from occular MG throughout high school. I found that I was able to complete my work without too much trouble. I did an honours english degree so I spent a lot of time reading and typing on computers but as long as I took breaks I always finished my work on time. I had a prism fitted on my glasses for a little while, but I didn't notice much difference so I stopped wearing it. I usually just would shut one eye or wear a patch if my double vision got really bad.

I was pretty lucky that my MG was well controlled by mestinon throughout university - it's only the past two years that the mestinon has stopped helping and I've had to switch to other meds. I really hope and pray that Mestinon continues to work for you - the steriods are both a blessing and a curse, so stay off them while you can!

Good luck in school and have fun when you can! Enjoy the good days!
