Myasthenia gravis causes weakness of the swallowing muscles of many individuals, leading to problems involving choking, a terrifying experience, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/swallowing-speaking-symptoms, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/diet, and https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/barium-swallow-experience.
Have you had problems swallowing before? What foods are tolerable? How do you manage to take any prescription pills?
.No - not yet away - and I hope never . It sounds horrible! Gail Hesley

Yes, I have MG. for about 3 years. I'm a physician associate. It is difficult being a patient. I want to ask questions. Fortunately the neurologist at the VA takes the time to answer them. I get ivig once a month. I find this 3-4 hour infusion a happy experience with lunch and wonderful caring nurses.
