    I was diagnosed with MG in April 2022 and went back to work August of 2022. My neurologist told me I was capable of working so I went back. Since then, I get tired every day as my job entails me getting up and down frquently and climbing 6 flights of 11 steps each sometimes 2-3 times a day. I really wih I could work from home but it is not possible cuz of the work I do. So I don’t have a choice but to keep working until I can retire which I was hoping for a year but now that I have MG and a recent diagnosis of a second autoimmune disease in Dec 2022, I dont know if medically I can retire until 5 yrs from now when I turn 65 and can get Medicare. If the government doesn’t change all that between now and then. Lol. So that is where I am at. I just don’t know from year to year if I will be able to continue to keep up.
