Kathy,
Welcome to the best MG site on the web. You are not to old to get MG. I am glad that you were DXed so fast. most of us took years, but then 18 years ago they just didn't know much about MG. As for the Thymus gland, I did not have a thymoma but they removed it anyway and I went into a full medication free remission for 17 years. {My MG is back now} My MG is mostly in the eyes and arms. when your vision starts acting up, tilting your head helps. You will meet some wonderful peopl here.
