Default Hi Barbara356!

Yes!Yes!Yes! We wax and wane so much! If you do tpp much, you will usually feel it BIG time the next day! I am like that all the time! I think almost everyone on this site sill attest to that.............superwoman one day- blah the next!

The one thing we cannot predict is HOW we are going to feel the next day - I will have my clothes ready for work, only to not be able to get off the sofa.......

Are you on meds yet? I know that since I have been on the pred it has caused weight gain - it just does that. I am bigger now than I have ever been and it is taking it's toll on m body - I have a small frame and it hurts like heck to move now (some days)..........

I think EVERYONE that takes pred gains weight - there isn;t much we can do about it.........

IT does get better though! The act that you were able to attend your grandson's game is GREAT!

Hang in there!

Is this unusual to feel the next day instead of the day it happened? I am going to my first MD clinic Monday anybody else go to one of those? I heard they do test the first day even if you already have a diagnosis. I am almost 50, and I was wondering does this actually damage the muscle recepticle to the point that it can't connect properly?
Is anyone else out there overweight and have MG/ I hope I gave you enough questions to answer. LOL.
