The symptoms are similar to Ocular MG. In fact, I wonder if I should be tested for TA. My mother and I are very similar as well. She had it - I'll get it. I would like to learn more about the genetics of MG. I have wondered if mother might have MG as well, but she did test positive for TA, so probably not. Where do you live now, Babs? Would love to keep in touch through the website. Have a good afternoon. Keep smiling.
Kathie-I live in Birmingham and passed through Columbia a few weeks ago going to/from Goldsboro. We were there to get the house ready to put on the market...and, yes, my little childhood town does have THE best BBQ. In fact, I have about 7 lbs. in my freezer right now! We lived a few blocks from the park so I spent many hours playing there over the years---my dad was in Kiwanis for years and worked the train many Sundays in the summers. Who knows, I may know your husband's relatives (although I have been gone so long but I do still have a lot of connections there). I went to Meredith for 2 years, then transferred to Bama...and one of my suitemates was from Winston..lots of girls from there, in fact. I'd love to keep in touch too!

In Joy-Babs
