Thank you Alice for your support. It really helps me feel less crazy.

You are definitely not crazy, (but I can understand why you feel so).
I would find what you say amusing if it wasn't sad.
I was told that such severe weakness and breathing difficulties like mine can't be MG, unless you are in crisis, and I am not in crisis, because someone in crisis is much more ill than me.
makes sense, doesn't it?
Just as much sense as what your neuro says.
As you know I chose the name "Alice" because this illness made me feel like I am "Alice in wonderland" and some of those neuros made me think I was in the mad hatter's tea party.
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
