You can always vent here!! And yes, we know EXACTLY what you are talking about!

The 'superwoman syndrome' seems to be a common denominator for many of the females here. Some of us even wonder if this could have been a predisposition to our MG. Somebody should do a study.

Anyway, hang in there. You may have to find new ways to explain and cope until you can establish something that represents 'normal'....because none of us can consistently pull off the 'superwoman' anymore!! Some days yes...but many days no. The most important thing now is for you to not will your body to do more than it actually can. That's how bad things happen. Whether we like it of not...in the end, MG has the final say.

Keep some notes, pick your priorities, and get as much rest as you can when you can between now and the next time you see your neuro. Then you can discuss if there are options or not. Remember too that stress can add to weakness. It really wipes me out more that anything else.

I know it stinks....it just is what it is. Hang in there!
