Thank you
Thank you all so much! Well, here are some of my symptoms:
I have left eye ptosis..pretty pronounced. If I put ice on it, it perks up nicely, only to soon enough droop again. Seems to be getting worse.
My lips are NOT the lips I recognize anymore! I don't understand...is that part of MG, too? They are...how do I explain?...the upper lip that used to be a classic arched lip is suddenly thin, and I suddenly have these grooves going downward at each corner of my mouth.
My neurologist seems to think I have MG, even though she doesn't have the results of my tests yet (my MRIs of brain and spine are scheduled), and says that even if I'm negative on everything, she's starting me on MG meds.
I sometimes have depth perception issues...I talked to my husband today for about 5-10 minutes, and my throat is STILL fatigued & sore, and that was over an hour ago.
I haven't walked normally up the stairs for about 2 years. I have to take them one at a time, not able to trust my leg muscles to hold me up..my right leg in particular.
I usually have to put a bean bag type little pillow under my elbows to be able to type on my laptop 'cause I can't hold up my arms in place that long.
If I take a hot bath..well actually, I can't do that anymore. But if I do, my legs are instant lead. I can NOT move them to get out of the tub.
I won't go on..I feel awkward having mentioned that many as is! I don't mean to complain, but honestly, are these signs of MG?
I truly appreciate your help. Thank you!!
