6 Types of Myasthenia Gravis: What Are the Differences? Read Article...
A MGteam Member

Hi Debbie. It has affected both sides of me. Both my arms and hands get very weak. When it comes to my eyelids the right side is down more than the left side. I am having problems with the muscles on both sides of my ribs hurting bad when I get up from lying down but I do not know if it is connected to MG,

I'm so sorry that you don't have a more supportive, knowledgeable neurologist helping you out, Debbie! I wonder if there are articles or resources available here or somewhere else online that you could use to bolster your points and/or counter your neurologist's? Wishing you luck with this and hoping it doesn't cause you so much frustration that your general health is worse because of it! Sending you big virtual hugs. ❤️❤️

That’s how mine has been. Sadly my neurologist doesn’t recognize this as MG 😫
