To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download myasthenia gravis I am a 33 year old female. I started having my symptoms June. Started with initially vertigo symptoms. At least that is what I thought it was. However I know I had a hard time focusing with my eyes. Then In Augst of this year my left eye lid started dropping. I could not control it. I went to the doctors initially in July and was diagnosed with ptosis initially. Then I finally got to see a neurologist in August who diagnosed me with Myasthenia Gravis I have been having a hard time dealing with the dropping eye lid. I have double vision and one eye is lower than the other. Unable to look all the way up with my left eye. I thought why is this happening to me. I am so young. It is very frustrating at times. When I get tired I notice that the eye lid drops even more. I am hoping in the near future the eye lid will be back to normal and vision. I am really trying to think positive however it is very hard everytime I look in the mirror. Comments
