Hey great conversation starter. I hope more people will share their story.
I'll make mine short and simple. I was 17 years old and I woke up one morning unable to brush my teeth properly. Then I had extreme jaw weakness that seemed instantly. I had a hard time chewing, constantly choking on my food, then the slurred speech started. I remember telling my mom and asking her to take me to the hospital but she simply told me to stop playing around. Then came the double vision and droopy eye lids, my mom still thought I was still playing around. It was my dad that talked her into taking me to the hospital.
It took 3 months for doctors to diagnose me with MG. Needless to say I felt like a lab rat.
I'm dramatic and I was a teen at the time...so I thought I was dying after day 3. LOL
