waiting to get in for testing and bloodwork. Wednesday when I first woke up my right eye kept closing itself, I thought I was just tired. But then all day I kept noticing it trying to fall closed. Have had eye troubles (muscle problems, double vision, blurry vision, etc, ) for a while, along with long term fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, etc.

But this latest eye trouble, leading up to Wednesday, comes after a massive car accident two years ago. lots of injuries, including broken sternum (the lots of little crunches kind, right where seatbelt crosses middle of chest, not a single clean break). Lots of continuing problems from this accident. Lots of physical and mental stress.

Because of increasing eye problems, including now this eyelid thing, I cannot do much internet researching, so I thought I'd ask here, where people have more experience and info.

Could getting smashed to hell and back be a trigger for MG? Sternum injury right over the thymus? (as well as broken rib, clavicle, etc) Stress?

Or is my rotten luck just as good as ever?

Also wondering--I find I have days where I frequently swallow, just my saliva, wrong and end up choking as it tries to go down the wrong pipe. Days where it feels like my face is in an unwanted frown, I was thinking it was tightly drawn down, but now I wonder if it is sagging instead. the "weird breathing thing" where I just sort of forget to keep breathing if reclining at certain angles (but not all) or lay flat, and have to consciously breathe, or change position. And I get short of breath over almost nothing some days. Of course, after 2 years of trying to heal from multiple injuries, I am indeed in lousy shape, but it just seems I can't make any headway. Does any of this fit with MG also?

my ophthalmologist had me try the "ice test" and it helped, until I warmed up again. so now I'm waiting for the local neurology group to get me in for testing (scheduled at the end of the month). But in the meantime, I can't help but wonder about this, and what might have triggered it, and what symptoms I should remember to tell the doc when I finally get there, and what to not bother with because it would just cloud the situation.
