    I posted on July 19th about my husband being diagnosed with MG in July.  Update:  He is now back in the hospital since August 18th.  He had been on Pyridostigmine and Glycopyrrolate after he was diagnosed in July.  Had really bad side effects.  Was taken off around August 16th.  Was put on 60 mg Prednisone started August 17th.  After just two days he was so bad I had to take him to the ER.  Was admitted to the hospital again.  Was put on ventilator August 20th taken off August 21 put back on August 22 and as of today August 24 is still on the vent and may be for a few more days. May have to have a trach.  Has so much secretions and can’t cough them up. I’m in a daze.  I pray he gets better. I still blame Covid and the stupid vaccine.

    Hello, I received my 2 shots in March 2021.  The 1st shot I was sick for 2 days and the 2nd shot I was sick for 4 days.  It felt like the virus all over again.  I had Covid-19 in January and was sick for 6 weeks.  I went into the hospital for 5 days.  I lost 15 lbs.  My husband received his shots in March also.  They didn’t bother him except for a sore arm.  He’s always been the healthy one.  He started having problems in June. He would choke a lot had trouble chewing and swallowing.  He lost 25 lbs in 2 weeks.  I finally got him into a doctor and he sent us to the emergency room.  They ran a lot of tests and kept him for a week on IV.  Still couldn’t eat.  They thought it was ALS.  He got to come home with a feeding peg.  I feed him 5-6 times a day.  We went to a neurologist and he felt it was Myasthenia Gravis.  Did the blood work and that’s what it is.  I believe and will never change my mind that this is because of the Covid 19 shots.  He went from very, very healthy to having this damn disease.

    My husband and I had Covid in January.  His was mild.  Flu symptoms for 4 days.  He got his first Pfizer vaccine in February and the second in March.  He started having trouble swallowing in June in a matter of weeks he lost 25 lbs.  He couldn’t eat/drink/take pills.  He kept saying everything was going down his wind pipe.  It all happened so fast.  Doctors aren’t sure why it got so bad so fast.  Still on a ventilator maybe put on a trach next week.
