Myasthenia Gravis Support Group

I understand completely. I find this happens to me when I am pushing myself. If I stop and rest I get much better.

I get the silent tears all the time and during my last acupuncture session, they rolled most of the time. My acupuncturist said that is how my body stores stress (we are all different) and it is a good thing to just let them flow. I have had an abnormally low body temp all my life and am now on Sepia, a homeopathic remedy that helps to raise the body temp to normal levels. Google it and find the questionnare to see if it may be of help to you also. Good luck and I wish you the best. Take time to stop and cry, good therapy.

I also cry uncontrolled at times. I recently had bloodwork for the myasthenia gravis, and it was negative but still have night sweats and double vision. It may go away or not, the neurologist stated. I did hit my head six weeks ago, it could be that or an undetected stroke.

thank you all it helps knowing I am not alone. My Neuro says it happens with chronically sick people.
Bless you all for always helping

The "anger" comment makes me wonder whether you are on steroids and whether some of these symptoms could be related to that medication. Also, aren't problems controlling body temp. related to thyroid issues? My daughter's doc says thyroid issues are very common in MG patients. Just some thoughts. Good luck. Sarah

my god I guess Im not the only one , I feel much better

I am on welbutrin XL for my depretion. I used to cry so much. I could not imagine how i would be if i was not on it. especialy adding MG to my life. one emotional ride............It definately levels me out!!
Just a little insight.....

thank you dawn that helped, you said that you are on welbutrin XL , dose it make you tired or awake? can you tell me what brought you to having to take it? I just wanted to know sorry I keep asking questions but I want to know every thing about something I have to take. Because my Dr put me on lexapro and I pretty much wanted to die and I had sooooooo many anxiaty attacks it made my hubby say thats it find some thing eles to put you on! My point is does it work for you?

To Heatherboo74..I am always tiered anyway from the Mestinon but the Welbutrin has worked for me before my MG and with the MG. I had a son when i was 20 and gave him up for adoption so i have been on Welbutrin for over 5 years and i have never had a problem with it..It helps alot with all the MG issues (not being able to do alot like i used to) They have lots of anti depresants out thier you just need to find what works for u... Good luck...

To DawnLA,
Bless you for giving your son up for adoption rather than aborting him. I'm sure that he brings great joy to his adoptive parents - and you should take great joy in that. Do you have any contact? Hopefully, some day you can!
