You know what, I'm starting to feel silly for even thinking about this. First of all, I have seven grown siblings--none of them have any weird symptoms. This is a dominant gene. Even if I'm a new mutation, which I've read happens "occasionally," I have seven kids of my own--five of them old enough to show symptoms if they inherited it. And third, I started to get these symptoms when I was 43, which is way too late--almost unheard of.

I will journal the attacks, because maybe there is a trigger, no matter what sort of attacks they are. But I think for now I have to assume it's MG. I'm putting a lot of trust in the occular MG specialist who diagnosed me by SFEMG. Onward and upward. Thanks, Annie and Kristie, for your help, and Kristie, I would still be very interested in anything else you think of!
