Wow!!!! I think this is the first time I've read where anybody mentioned a lisp. Yes, Yes, Yes! Lisping was my first symptom and why I went to the Dr. Can you believe I had never even heard of Myasthenia Gravis back then (May 2010) When I am tired I can have a hint of a lisp now. People sometimes pick it up before I do. Initially I would choke when I ate and my tongue would quit pushing food around until I stopped chewing for a minute. I started out with all bulbar symptoms--from the neck up and that's where I'm at now. It's my eyes lately that give me the most trouble. My work involves a lot of computer work so it really can affect me being able to use my computer at home. Sad to say. I enjoy so much talking to others with MG. It's such a blessing. I work full time right now but I do get tired out--like now...

Got to go now. Thank you so much for sharing and making me feel like somebody else and not alone!!!
