How do you balance exercise and MG?

I’ve been going to a personal trainer since about early 2019, just months before my MG manifested itself even though early signs were there. My trainer puts me through a 70 minute routine, including a 10 minute stationary bike ride. Routine consists of 12 individual exercises repeated 1-15 repetitions each twice a week. I’ve learned to listen to my body & know my limits of what I can lift or move through my routine slowly if it becomes a problem. In addition I go to physical therapy to assist with balance since I’m dealing with neuropathy too!

I try to work and just get so tired. exercise and feel so tired. Been trying to strengthen my neck muscles and it feels weird and tired.

I weight train 2 days a week with a personal trainer. Like many others have said, you have to listen to your body. There have been more than a few times I've told my trainer it needed to be a "light" day because of how I felt. Fewer exercises and lighter weight being pushed.

I practiced yoga long before being diagnosed with MG. However, I had to change from hot power yoga to a gentler mind body approach. It took me a while to "like and enjoy" this new practice but it keeps me strong as I have come to embrace the changes and honor what my body needs. My MG began as Ocular, diagnosed with the foresight of my Opthalmologist who referred me to a neuro-opthalmologist who diagnosed the MG with bloodwork. Last July 2024,I landed in the hospital needing IVIG due to chewing, swallowing, breathing symptoms. I was okay for a few months but worsened and was hospitalized in January this year in crisis requiring intubation and more IVIG. I'm much improved now thanks to additional treatments, including physical therapy. Rebuilding strength takes time and patience. I'm learning that slow and steady is a fine pace.
