Thanks for the responses!

I am “overwhelmed”…

I have had a little warning that I probably had MG. When my eyelid drooped I went to my eye doctor… who sent me to an Ophthalmologist – who was fairly certain I had MG, ordered blood work and made an appointment with a Neurologist… who after doing an exam and reviewing the blood work told me I had MG. But… he didn’t participate with my insurance program. Up until that point I was out of pocket for all my expenses.

Once I realized this wasn’t just an “eye problem” I made an appointment with my primary care doctor, who I hadn’t been to in 10 years, and started over. He ordered new blood work, then made an appointment with another Neurologist. The new Neurologist, after doing an exam and looking at the new blood work, diagnosed me with MG. So.. so far I have had a Ophthalmologist and two Neurologists tell me I have MG.

The primary care doctor ordered all kinds of blood work, I have twelve pages of results. In answer to the post asking if I had the results – I do.
