Thanks for your response.fortunately I don't have double vision. Neither do I have problems with my voice or swallowing. Do those symptoms affect everyone with MG or just some? I haven't been given any medication because my Dr. wants to be sure of what I've got first. The problem is that if it's not MG then he's probably not going to do any further testing. I have a back-up Dr. for next week if that's the case. It's so frustrating!!! Hopefully will get some answers today or tomorrow. Will let you know what happens.

Do you have double vision? trouble with your voice? trouble swallowing? I know what you mean about not being able to seperate your fingers {that used to happen to me} the twitching also happens. I had one Dr. tell me I didn't have MG but had MS, he was wrong, I knew it was MG because I was lucky enough to be seen by "the" MG specialist in NYC. You may need to see more than one Dr. to get things figured out. Have they given you any medications such as mestinon, to see it if helps you any? Please keep us updated and good luck.
