Yes, having both diseases simultaneously can happen. It makes for a more challenging treatment strategy, but sometimes the same drugs can be used to treat both conditions.
"Lockjaw" doesn't sound very much like MG to me, unless I am not understanding what you mean. With MG, usually the opposite is the problem--the jaw is weak and can hang open. Locking of the jaw can be something as simple as TMJD, which I have as well. That. of course is more of a structural/joint problem, not a weak muscle issue.
In any case, I hope you find some answers soon, so you can begin to pursue treatment. Please feel free to share some of those other symptoms that aren't explained by MS as well.

absolutely correct about the lockjaw. Muscles aren't strong enough to tighten or cramp anymore.
16 vials of blood is very high!! amazing...the highest I have seen at once was 11...I hope there is a great doctor behind the order and can make sure treatment is very helpful to your life
Sincere thoughts and prayers!
