    Best wishes to you too, Wayne! Hopefully they find something that knocks MG right out of commission.

    Hi Wayne, there are more than a few people on the MG Forums who share that they willingly got vaccinated, and that they were harmed by the vaccine by developing MG. This is my husband’s experience. We have reported it to Pfizer and to the public health authorities where we live. We believe so strongly in the necessity of being vaccinated for covid, we have kept this by and large to ourselves, even with the devastating consequences of developing this devastating autoimmune disease.  I have not noted a single anti-vaxxer here. But people who accept the risks for the greater common good who are harmed, while rare, should be provided with proper financial and social supports.

    Hi Deborah, Mike and anyone else concerned that the covid vaccine caused or precipitated their MG. My husband started symptoms approximately 30 days after his second dose. I would urge you to phone Pfizer and have them mail you their adverse event reporting form, and also to ask your doctor to report the vaccine – MG timeline to the CDC. As it’s rare, to begin with, the more incidences that are reported, the better chance that this rare side effect is ‘seen’ in the data. This might lead to salary loss compensation and coverage for medical expenses if the association becomes clear.
