Myasthenia Gravis Symptoms. My MG symptoms include diplopia, ptosis and muscle fatigue. Other names for symptoms: double vision and a droopy eyelid.
Myasthenia is a neuromuscular, chronic, autoimmune disease. The disorder affects the acetylcholine nerve receptor sites, which get blocked by antibodies formed against the thymus gland. This stops the muscles from contracting as they are not able to receive nerve impulses.
Other symptoms of Myasthenia Gravis included skeletal (voluntary) muscle weakness that involves talking, chewing and can include difficulty breathing.
The worst of my symptoms occurred in 2015 and 2016. Since then I have made many changes and slowly improved. Now in 2019, I am doing well, but I want to keep getting healthier to show others that it's possible and to be able to assist others where I can.
