Thanks for this information, Alice. I have been meaning to ask about this; why I get ptosis and general fatigue after changing the air filter, or squatting to see products on the bottom shelf at the supermarket. I'd thought perhaps this pointed more to other diagnoses than MG, so this is good to know.
