Oh boy, something to look forward to. The doctor informed me that I have Ocular Myasthenia after having a few test. Woke up with double vision then the eye lids began to close or just hard to open. Started taking 1/2 pill 3 times a day of "Generic" Mestinon three weeks ago. I now take 1 pills 60MG three times a day. So far the only change for me is I can hold one eye lid open with no problem. The eye lid problem then switched sides. Still have the double vision but I am not sick in any way (so far). The doctor will call me in three days.

Has anyone had this situation etc.? How long before we get better? Do we take this medicine forever or do we get off the medicine?
