Dottie,

So Iīm assuming only people with respiratory MG problems get exacerbated weakness from flying, do you think that is about right?
Iīve flown with general weakness and didnīt notice a thing until it had spread and begun to affect diaphragm weakness................

Do you think like Annie says, once you are on the ground later on, things donīt necessarily show on the tests, or are you in fact saying that you got pulmonary testing immediately after the flight that affected you so much?.................

Yes I should know about trying hard enough!!! Iīm the one that river rafted 21 days down that majestic Grand Canyon and a few years later could not even stir a casserole! Wouldnīt that just be a new thread full of fine examples of how people have been told just to try that little bit harder?!!!..........

You mentioned not being able to get up from your seat on this flight and being embarrassed, would you say then that you were mostly concerned about the physical effects on your body after taking this flight?
