Hand swelling and tingling

I am in the middle of an MG Crisis. In 10 Days I will start my second series of Vyvgart. I am wondering if anyone has had hand swelling and tingling? I also have all the signs like double vision and all around weakness and exhaustion.

  1. I have been diagnosed with MG 20 years ago. This is my second crisis. I get Vyvgart in 10 days and hope in the future to get treatments before any symptoms occur. this will be the second series of Vyvgart it lasts about 6 months

    1. Sending my deepest compassion your way and good vibes for improvement! Have you ever tried IVIG or PLEX during a crisis? If this is your first crisis, I recommend checking out the information in this article: https://myasthenia-gravis.com/crisis-treatment. There is not discussion currently on our site about hand swelling. However, there is on hand tingling: https://myasthenia-gravis.com/forums/numbness-and-tingling-in-limbs, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/stories/my-myasthenia-start, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/forums/newly-diagnosed-old-age, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/forums/does-a-negative-ana-mean-a-negative-for-mg-or-are-the-specific-antibody-tests-different, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/forums/might-it-be, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/forums/confused-scared, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/shaking-spasms.

      I would discuss carpal tunnel syndrome as a possible cause with your doctor if you've yet to.

      Do you have an MG diagnosis yet, or do you still need testing done?
