Annie....
BRAVO on this one..
DO NOT put an MG patient in a regular unit of a hospital. Due to the unpredictable nature of the illness and weakness while in an imminent or current myasthenic crisis, they need to be monitored in an ICU setting.
I was in the hosp years ago and went into crisis and stumbled to the nurses station and passed out, later I learned they called a code blue on me. MG is very hard for Dr's and nurses to understand if they are not "involved" with the illness.
You and Alice are the best!
