Hello everyone,

My name is Eddie and I was diagnosed with MG in 2009. I was positive for the blood test. I only had bulbar symptoms (speech and breathing issus) so it was very hard finding out the cause. I am a 26 year old man so I also didn't fit the typical age group. I have had the same neurologist through the entire process and I have been fortunate enough to not have to take medicine because of my mild symptoms. As of Thursday, I started noticing some vision problems. My central field of vision seemed to be oscillating or was a bit wavy. I noticed that when I would stare at certain patterns or even text, my eyes lose focus on these items and they seem to move. From what I understand this may be nystagmus, I'm not sure. I'm reaching out because I do have some minor blurred vision and my vision is somewhat wavy. I don't know if this is normal or not. I went to an eye doctor on Saturday and ordered glasses. He said I have an astigatism in both eyes, but even when I was fitted for the proper script I was still seeing this wavy almost double vision effect. I went to the ER today and they did a CT scan which was clean. I am going to call my doctor tomorrow. Is this a normal vision symptom? I'm kind of scared. My anxiety level has been at it's highest point and I keep having panic attacks about all of this stuff (it's hard to ignore this symptom when I need to read fine text). I don't know if the vision is anxiety related, but I know our mental health can impact MG.

(I also tried the test where you look up and kind of strain the eye in an upward gaze. My eyelids end up closing completely after 20 seconds as I try to keep them open. Once I relax I am able to open them back up a bit.)

Thank you for any advice you may have.
