Good morning friends,
Thanks for the thoughtful replies. It's good to know when you're amongst friends.

Yes the bloodwork test for MG... I left that out of my initial post. It came back negative, so if MG is to blame I would be one of the 20% "seronegative" (right word?) people with it.

A CT scan hasn't been done to look at the thymus. I called the neuro's nurse this morning to ask about the chest pain possibly being related to the thymus. She was going to forward my question to the doc.

But on the same call, she said that just last night the doc had put in an order for me to have an MRI... Something he'd declined (for me) initially. My eye dr was the one who became concerned based on what she was observing, and cared enough to send the neuro a letter stating her suggestion of an MRI.
