I just saw the hospital's neurologist, a super nice guy. I told him about the other E.R. visits & how everything I'd read said to try & avoid arriving at a crisis but that E.R.s have been sending me away. He told me, "Well, I don't want to be talking badly about the other doctors & I don't know what was going on, but screw them, they were wrong." (WHAT?!! )

The doctor tested for muscle weakness & said he thinks I have classic seronegative MG (I prefer 'classy'). He's going to start me on five days of IVIG, so I'll be testing how good my insurance coverage is. I've never stayed in a hospital before.

I'm just so thankful. You guys bore with me during these couple months of complaining & frustration, please bear with me while I experience this new sense of elation. I'm just so thankful they're so WILLING to help me!

If anyone reading is in the Austin, Texas area, let me know if you want the name of my primary doctor who's such a gung-ho advocate for MGers (his dad had MG).
