MemberSeptember 20, 2023 at 4:09 pm in reply to: Your Myasthenia gravis symptom that responds least to treatmentI was diagnosed in 2022 I slipped out of bed and was paralyzed and couldn’t yell for help! Thank God my daughter found me I was diagnosed in 2008 had the antibodies but Never had a symptom until 2022 I had thymona removed was cancerous . So when this happen I didn’t know wat was happening to me. I had 10 treatments of plasma aphersis it help but took months to be able to shower- feed myself or even talk without slurring.I had double vision while in hospital 16 days. And once needed to wear an eye patch. I did have breathing problems 1 yr later but now finding out I had fluid around my heart so don’t no if that was the mg. I’m doing ok now I’m on prednisone which now I have a fractured vertebrate probably from steroids. Trying to get now. Need to take insulin also. I never had sugar problems hopefully I can stop steroids . With this mg no one really knows what’s next!
