Default Hi Allen

Boy, what you had to say sounds so familiar. I get so angry because I can't do what I used to ., my stamina is way down., and like you my eyes get so goofy you are fearful to drive any distance and especially at night. I know it was the last things I expected to hear when I kept suffering from double vision for 8 months and then was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, I can still remember coming out of the opthamologist office after the diagnosis and my husband saying it will be okay., and I said no it won't. Lots of anger and I still get angry. I am learning how to deal with the disease. Resting when necessary and listening to my body. Everyone on this board has really helped me with the dealing, Thank goodness I found this board so soon after being diagnosed. I am a worrier always was so at first I worried about everything that could happen to me. Now I am a little calmer, and try not to think to much about what if??? Instead I try to think about right now. I just started a part time job., and my eyes get really goofy after all day at work., but mentally the job has helped me, and I rest alot when I get home., and I will do the job as long as I can. Take a day at a time., and yes anger is part of having the disease. Take Care, Nancy
