Hi Tom...welcome to group!

A couple of other suggestions. There are some things that can make MG worse that it wouldn't hurt to avoid until you get to your doc.

No alcohol, muscle relaxers, and check out whatever meds (prescribed or over the counter) that you are taking for the ear infection/congestion since some meds are contraindicated with MG. I will try to find the link for this and post later unless someone beats me to it!!

Also, try applying ice to your eye for a few minutes to see if the drooping improves. This is a 'cheap test' for the liklihood of MG. (With MG, muscle tone can improve for a bit after icing.)

Keep us posted - - and hope all stays static until you get home. And CONGRATS on beating your lymphoma!!

Sue
