Coping With Myasthenia Gravis

i first noticed something was nOt right when i was 18. it started in my legs. they would jus simply give way.i went to the doctors who could not diagnose what was wrong. after leaving it for a another year things became worse it started in my eyes and arms. as i was travling i went to a hospital in the country who said it was a ligament problem. it became very hard for me as i tryed to keep my problem from my family and husband as much as i could making excuses for this illness.

in november 2008 i was diagnosed with mg after haven a emg test. at first i was very shocked because i had never heard of it. but being able to talk about it freely to people has become easier after suffereing 2 years with not knowing what i had wrong and everyday struggling to do the simpliest things in life to me then was very hard. and a struggle.

i am know taken tablets which i feel 80% better but feel that sometimes i dont have full strength in my legs but am still in the early stages of treatment. my advise to any one with mg is. dont be scared, dont keep it from people at the time to you it does nt feel right or look normal. but theres always people to help you.
