Default Is this MG?

Hi Doglover!

I've only had the swallowing difficulty once. How often can it happen in MG? Does it continue to come and go frequently?

Also, on the smoking part....how can the doctor determine whether shortness of breath is related to smoking or MG? It's kind of like I've noticed this more in the past six months and then came the double vision problems. I'm not sure how to describe it...maybe almost as if I'm not getting enough air in at times.

It's hard for me to say whether or not I get weak after activities, etc, because, like everyone it seems, I'm always on the go and by the time dinner is cooked, kids are bathed, homework done, etc, I'm exhausted. I have noticed at times that I just want to sit down bec I'm tired after doing yardwork or just after I've been busy, but not sure if that's normal or not.

I'll mention the breathing issue to my neuro when I see him next Thursday, in the meantime, let me know if you can think of anything else I can look for. A big thx for replying!!!!
