Tracy, Ditto on what these guys said. Don't be stupid. Dial 911. I am serious. You don't know how fast your MG will get worse. And it can get bad so quickly that you may not be able to even dial a phone let alone talk.

I'm not trying to scare you just trying to get you to realize that you are having all of the warning signs of an MG crisis. You CANNOT wait. You can die. Please dial 911 and get help tonight. They may need to do much more than IVIG, like plasmapheresis, oxygen, etc.

PLEASE, just do it. It doesn't matter if you are not "officially" diagnosed or being treated. In fact, some MGers have a crisis as their first experience with MG. They can diagnose you in the ER too.

Again, you HAVE TO go in. At this point, there is no other choice. No offense to anyone but screw the presents. The BEST present to your family will be the fact that you survive this. The faster you go in, the faster you go home. You are a newbie . . . you have to trust those of us who have had a crisis and truly understand this stuff.
