I fell last Monday. A hard impact. Didn't break anything, but really shaken up. (Not in any way related to MG or other disabilities or illnesses. Just one of those things.) And within 12 hours my usual MG symptoms worsened. Far more tired, exhausted and weak than usual. It's five days later and I'm still on the road back to normal. Is this a known problem with MG, that a physical accident will cause a flare of some kind?☹️

Injection every six months. No big deal.
Yes I agree! A fall did it for me then femur surgery then MG. I’ve come a long way just trying to embrace my new self but longing for my old self but thankful I’m still here to be with my hubby, my faithful dog who doesn’t leave my side plus my daughter, son and son in law and my 3 grandchildren. Thank you God.
I'm so sorry you fell, but thankful you didn't break anything. I know how difficult falls can be and yes the slightest trauma can set off our MG and make symptoms worse. You take things easy, get your rest and your body time to heal. I'll keep you in my prayers Mr. Robert.
Take care
MG can and does exacerbate everything that happens to us. A headache, simple stress can become big stress, a 29 min nap can become multiple naps in a day and still sleep at night to the exact opposite of no sleep at all.
I'm so sorry if you fell and I hope you are not in any pain.
Get some rest. Be well.
I hope i helped😎
Every six months is easier than weekly or monthly. Just sayin'.
