Confused
In 1997, a doctor said I had restless leg symptom. Then in 1999, I had a brain tumor. Another doctor said I had fibromyalgia and I was prescribed medication. Then in October 2022, I was driving and the lines on the road started going haywire. The lines would cross over each other, I saw two road signs, and two cars coming when there was only one. I saw my doctor and he said go get your eyes checked. I did, but they were fine. He had me going to several different doctors.
A long road to a MG diagnosis
Finally, I took my nurse daughter's suggestion and went to see her doctor. He had me give many blood samples. After I left he called me and told me I had gMG!! What was that? Oh, just an incurable disease. I take many pills, I saw a Neurologist, and had many MRI's. So now I only hurt on my eyes, nose, ears, head, neck, shoulders, back, arms, hands, stomach, legs, feet, toes, fingers, my mouth, my speech, my tongue, and my mind. So I pretty much hurt all over, and no cure!!!! But, if I take my medication, I can drive. I can't walk without a cane, walker, or wheelchair. Oh well, I am 82 years old. The doctor says it could be worse????
