Sounds almost like a match to me - only I'm a 62 year old women with an eye patch! I know exactly when my mg came on and it was very quick. I was living in central Georgia and driving to Tenn on the weekends to clear up some lose ends for my old boss. I was fine driving to Chatt on Friday, but the drive back on Sunday was a nightmare. I couldn't hold my eyes open and had a difficult time holding my head erect. A 3 hour drive took almost 7 hours because I had to keep stopping to rest my eyes and neck. It took 6 months after that for a diagnosis while the symptoms just kept getting worse. I was so relieved to get a diagnosis, I cried for joy. (Of course, once I understood mg, my joy was definitely downgraded!) But, at least I knew what was wrong.
