If you are taking your Mestinon as prescribed and you get out of bed one day and able to walk around the block and then the next day you know you are not going to make it so you get three houses away so you turn around and go home is that because your muscles are more tired or fatigued?
If you are sitting in your chair and you go into crisis, is that your diaphragm gotten tired or fatiqued?
I know Webster would define them the same but to us it might be called something besides tiredness or muscle fatigue when our muscles just shut down. I wish I knew.

I found this little video on King Koil's Website. Not really sure how they expected it to sell mattresses, but I found it interesting. Basically an neurologist talking about the difference between sleepiness and fatigue in Myasthenia Gravis. There might have been more a little more info on King Koil's Website but my bookmark to to the Youtube video.
