Thank you for this. I've been trying to figure out how it was possible for my arms to be weak while walking and this is probably the best explanation I've heard so far.

Yes, even if you are not actively using one muscle group, the others can get weak because the antibody attack isn't too particular which area it attacks. Also, I do suspect that any physical activity kicks up MG and the antibodies. You could be using your legs while your MG is busy attacking the neuromuscular junction of your arms. That's why MG is the most seriously stupid disease on the planet! You can't use your logic to figure it out because it's illogical.
