    A primary care physician, although great to oversee all your medical conditions and treatment, will only sometimes treat or prescribe something for myasthenia gravis (MG). We strongly encourage you to book an appointment with an MG specialist as soon as possible because it can take an average of 2 months to get in for an appointment. https://myasthenia-gravis.com/living/finding-doctor-specialists. Because you have just the droopy eye symptom, you have ocular MG, which is the weakness of the eye muscles. Still, it can progress to generalized MG, which is the weakness of multiple muscle groups in the body. You may realize that this has already occurred to some degree. You could try to schedule with a neuro-ophthalmologist who treats diseases that affect the function of the nerves and muscles of the eye, or some people go ahead and schedule with a neurologist or neuromuscular specialist who specializes in treating diseases of the nervous system like MG so they can continue with that doctor if their MG progresses from ocular to generalized, https://myasthenia-gravis.com/doctor. If you are in America, this is a good page where you can start your search for MG specialists: https://myasthenia.org/Partners-in-MG-Care?fbclid=IwAR15QEvIG-1-RpvDB-nZ5Y8OkGXiQ91HIQD9laIvq9Meo27jSSTqYkISp3Y.
