Welcome Patsy!

Each of us is effected so differently (and this crazy MG can give the same person great days and rotten days). My complaint started as a right arn that kept getting heavy with use - specifically golf. I could play 15 or 16 well - and then not be able to control the club for that last few holes.

It took two years (and more symptoms) before dx'd. Got to the point where I couldn't even get 9 holes completed. The more I played, the heavier my right arm got. During that time I also started to notice 'tired legs' and some challenged breathing. But still I thought my arm was only problem - - and the other stuff was just being 'out of shape....getting older, etc.

Now on Mestinon and played 14 holes yesterday on pretty hot day (kinda tired today..lol). I'm very lucky for now (and know it). There are many folks on this site who are in serious circumstances...but you also need to know that there are folks with MG that still a practically normal life with the help of Mestinon.
