Annie,

Thanks for the reply.

I will be seeing my neurologist (the one I see for migraines) on July 2. I was planning on discussing this with him at that time. However, at my last appt., my opthamologist mentioned possibly referring me to a neuro-opthamologist at KU Med who specializes in MG. I plan on pursuing both opportunities.

So, from what I understand from your answer, I did have a positive achr test. I do not know what the modulating and blocking antibodies are. Can you explain that to me?

I do not have ptosis at this time unless I do and I just haven't noticed it yet. But, what I do have a problem with is extreme eye fatigue. As a teacher, literature and history, I was unable to read for any extended period of time during the last few months of the year. The students took over most of the reading that needed to take place.

When I rest my eyes my vision will clear for a little while. Now that school is out I will lay down with an ice pack on my eyes which helps tremendously.

I live in Kansas City and am planning on requesting a referral to Dr. Tom Whittaker (spelling of last name is iffy) at KU.

Thank you,
Shannon
