I can understand how tough it must be in your family situation and your not wanting to add to aunt/uncles responsibilities.
However.....
The lightheadedness could easily be a lack of oxygen to the brain. The other issues with throat, shortness of breath, heavy legs....say that you are 'hitting the wall'. The fact that you are having plasmaexchange on Monday confirms that right now your body needs quite a bit of support for your MG.
I would strongly suggest that you tell aunt/uncle about your symptoms last night and your concern / confusion over the right next step. As disruptive as you feel this may be, having you go into crisis and the whole 911 scene would be far more disruptive...and dangerous.
Whatever you and family decide, you need to NOT do anything until Monday whether you are in a hospital bed or your own bed. No stair climbing, no video games, nothing except TV and Turkey dinner ...okay?
I know at 17 you are 'invinceable'....but something tells me the MG doesn't know you are 17!! And for the moment, the MG has the upper hand unfortunately.
Let us know how your plasmaexchange goes on Monday - - and please, please, please - lay low til then.
