NordicGirl,
The MG diagnosis was found quite by accident - I thought I was going to be getting some cheap plastic surgery on my eyelids (indications were that I might just have "hooding", caused by age and gravity). Unfortunately, I "failed" the icepack test. In my case, the MG was caught VERY early, so I am quite fortunate. I don't know how it will progress from here; I am hoping it won't get too bad.

I did have some of the other symptoms that are seen in people with MG, but they were so subtle that I attributed them to getting older, my weight, and/or generally being out of shape. I told my husband that now I have a doctor's note to be fat and lazy!
