Posted this on the wrong spot - hate my stupid MG - really screws with my memory......

My mom has a lot of my symptoms - blurry/double vision, really weak, etc......a few years ago she couldn't even drive b/c her eyes were so weak and when she went in to have her eyes examined, the doctor was afraid to put drops in her eyes b/c they were moving all over the place.......

Then the other night, she fell backwards in my chair and wasn't able to get up - I had to lift her up - weird!!!!

Recently she has been able to sleep 17-20 hrs STRAIGHT - something I've never been able to do - no matter what........

She won't see a dr even though I've begged her to - she hates all the blood wrok, etc, but I'm really worried that she may have MG and don't know how to convince her to tell our family physician what is going on........

Granted, she has never had any problems swallowing or breathing, but neither did I until I got so sick after our trip to Belize - I caught some weird bug there - they (my docs) still have no idea what it was.........

Have any of you heard about MG running in families???????

Thanks!@
