Hi, I'm the resident hyperthyroid person, I think! Have you had your thyroid tested lately? The jumping you describe could possibly be a symptom of Graves disease, which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes goes along with MG. Your immune system attacks your thyroid and sends it into overdrive (hyperthyroidism). I think all MG patients should have a basic thyroid blood test anyway. Even people without MG should have one now and then, since hypothyroidism (the opposite problem, which is sometimes caused by an autoimmune disease) is very common.

I'm so glad you're finally getting your diagnosis! I have had symptoms for a year, and don't have a diagnosis yet. They haven't found the antibodies in my blood (I'm currently waiting on the results of the third try), and my single-fiber EMG was abnormal, but not enough to make the doctor confident that I have MG. I think I do, though.
