one day i woke up and went in the bathroom. i noticed that my right eye was very lazy/droppy. i thought mayb i sleep on my face and the pressure caused my eye to look like that. so the days keep going by and i thought it would go away, but it didn’t. it got worse. 2 weeks later my vision became blurry and sometimes doubled.
i recently scene two doctors and the 1stp one said it could b myasthenia gravis…i was like what is that…he told me and i did my research…but now i’m @ a stand still because i’m unemployed due to the massive lay off of workers last year. the specialist told me it would be $400.00 just to be seen. thats not even concluding the meds. is there any where i can get some help for this situation. ps. i need help. i use my eyes to work.
