I too went to the Dr. today and since I am still having many problems which he and I feel are not MG connected or Alpha-1 connected he tested me for lyme disease. {don't know the results yet}

I have an underactive thyroid {due to the thymectomy and partial removal of thyroid tissue} so I too am very glad he is checking that.

I am seeing my primary care Dr and they are setting up a stress test due to the shortness of breath and chest pains.

Sadly when we have something wrong like MG it is hard to tell what is what, add another illness to that and it's a crap-shoot.

If your Dr. doesn't make you feel safe than it is time to find another and don't take the "nothings wrong" DX, because to me, Dr.s say that when they are to lazy to really find out what is going on.

Ask your Dr. to think outside the box, ask him what he would do if it was his son sitting in the chair and not you. Please continue to keep us updated.
