– What is Myasthenia Gravis?

– Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease that affects the skeletal muscles. It is characterized by weakness and rapid fatigue of any of the muscles under voluntary control.

– The muscle weakness gets progressively worse with activity, and improves with rest.

– Myasthenia gravis preferentially affects young women in their 20s and 30s, and older men over the age of 60.

– Myasthenia Gravis symptoms:

– Myasthenia gravis can affect any of the muscles that the patient controls voluntarily. It most commonly affects certain muscles, including those of face and eyes, arms and legs, and those muscles involved in chewing, swallowing and talking. Muscles that control breathing also can be involved.

– So, signs and symptoms may include Facial muscle weakness, including drooping eyelids and Double vision. Difficulty in breathing, talking, chewing or swallowing, Muscle weakness in arms or legs, and fatigue that is caused by repetitive movements.

Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disorder causing extreme muscle weakness and can impact a person’s ability to see, smile, walk, talk and breathe. Our Connecticut MG Support Group sat down to talk about their experience with MG and the MG community.

If you believe that you have myasthenia gravis, please seek a doctor immediately. The MGFA provides a list of physician’s that have been vetted by our Medical / Scientific Advisory Board, here: http://myasthenia.org/LivingwithMG/PhysicianReferralList.aspx

If you have recently been diagnosed, you can see if there is a Support Group in your area here http://myasthenia.org/CommunitySupport/SupportGroupCalendar.aspx, or an MG Walk near you here: www.MGwalk.org.

“But you look so healthy.” “You can’t be that sick.” “Do you even really have that condition?”
Those are some of the many comments I have been hearing for the past 6 years of my life. My name is Lex Goodwin and in 2015 at the age of 19 years old, I was diagnosed with a rare auto-immune disease called Myasthenia Gravis also known as MG. MG is a chronic neuro-muscular disease that causes severe muscle weakness. I created this video to raise awareness, share my story, and help, encourage, and be a voice for those with MG and other chronic illnesses. I also wanted to help those without MG or a chronic illness better understand what it is like living with an illness you can’t “see”. Please subscribe to my channel and like and share this video!

Myasthenia gravis (MG) means grave or serious muscle weakness, which is what patients experience with this rare, autoimmune disease. The hallmark symptom is muscle weakness that worsens after periods of activity and improves after periods of rest.

University of South Florida (USF) Health Department of Neurology physician Dr. Niraja Suresh details the disease spectrum, how a diagnosis is obtained, and how to manage the condition.

In November 2020, argenx, a global immunology company, premiered the first-ever MG documentary film series called, “A Mystery to Me.” The docuseries illustrated the perseverance of three individuals as they navigate the challenges of living with MG and adapt their lives to accommodate the debilitating illness. Teresa, who was featured in the docuseries, was a busy mom, wife, and new business owner when she started to experience extreme weakness in her arms and legs. It took almost 2 years of seeing multiple doctors for her to get diagnosed. She shares her advice for other patients that anyone can relate to.

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease that causes weakness in the skeletal muscles, which are responsible for breathing and moving parts of the body, including the arms and legs. The weakness occurs because the immune system produces antibodies that attack and destroy the receptors for acetylcholine, a chemical that transmits messages from the nerve to the muscle. As a result, the muscle doesn’t receive the necessary signals to contract and becomes weak.

In severe cases, the weakness can affect the muscles involved in breathing, leading to a myasthenic crisis, which is a medical emergency characterized by extreme muscle weakness and difficulty breathing. This can be a life-threatening situation and requires immediate medical attention.

Heather Finlay-Morreale is a pediatrician.
