Nordic Girl,

From your description, it sounds very likely that you have MG. I hope that you get tested for antibodies. Maybe, if other diagnosis have been ruled out, your neuro will let you try taking Mestinon to see if it helps. I have had MG for a little over one year and am so thankful for the Mestinon.

I had the same finger weakness you described and my memory has suffered, especially my ability to remember words. I, too, am very educated and usually very good at communication, but find it difficult now that I have a hard time remembering the words I want to say...frustrating.

These symptoms are difficult to live with, I hope you get help soon.
