I was diagnosed with MG last month after a year of all sorts of tests and a week in the hospital because I was very ill. I was falling frequently as my legs would stop working suddenly. I also have extreme fatigue. The medication has helped to stop the falling and I am in PT to get strong enough to get off the floor or a soft chair by myself.

I was diagnosed with Myasthenia in February 2011 and affected the left eye and went to the right and in around a week went away. In November 2012 Myasthenia woke up and took me to the point I had to quit working by February 2013 because my vision was so blurry I could not see words just black spots on the page and my eyelids would not stay open so I was taping them up to see, trouble talking, swallowing

Noticed strength returned within a hour after taking first pill. Lasts about ten hours. My disease is general and not extreme. J
