Thanks for your responses. Knowing not to overdo it with the Mestinon is very helpful.

I'm cautiously optimistic (?) that I may finally get a diagnosis. It has been a long haul--7 years! I started out with just double vision, but then within the first 18 months had more symptoms--swallowing problems, arm and leg weakness. But most of those symptoms eventually disappeared, which was great although this made me feel as if I as imagining things. I just wish the docs could have seen me in the evenings when I felt so much worse.

Initial thoughts were MG, but all tests were negative. Then on to MS, but it didn't quite fit. Now back to MG. The docs are looking at purely ocular, but I wonder with previous symptoms. Can someone have MG even if the tests have been negative?
