Myasthenia gravis and MS?

Does anyone have both of these conditions?

I have clinically definite RRMS confirmed by MRI, spinal tap (no bands though) and the motherlode of blood work (16 vials if memory serves correct).

I've had some other issues like lockjaw that MS doesn't explain. Neuro is now sending me for nerve conduction and EMG testing. He hasn't said the words Myasthenia gravis, but I think it explains a lot for me.

Just wonderful. One disease wasn't enough!

Hi Jackson's Mom! No, I don't have that "wonderful" disease, but do have Fibromyalgia. I know it's not officially an autoimmune disease, but seems to occur frequently with one. Alot of us have more than one autoimmune thing going on. Hang in there....:hug:
