Myasthenia Gravis Support Group
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a neuromuscular disease leading to fluctuating muscle weakness and fatiguability. The hallmark of myasthenia gravis is muscle weakness that increases during periods of activity and improves after periods of rest. Although myasthenia gravis may affect any voluntary muscle, muscles that control eye and eyelid movement, facial expression, and...
due to my experience during my second covid shot, on wich i explained that i had a raetion to it aound 10 days after, i fell into severe extreme weakness (fatigue) wich took a hold on me for the following 4 months. started february 22 untill june 25 wich i stated fellin stronger, but i had a weird episode on mittle june on wich i was setting at the table working with my computer and I PASSED OUT FOR ABOUT 5 TO 10 MINUTES, when i came to my own from there i felt stronger, and thereforth better evry day, wich ment the grip of the vaccine was released.
on my doc visite i explain what has happened, was told to stop inmediatly to drive as what happened was i near syncope, and i was to take various tests. eeg, ekg, eco sound cardiogram, and hwering a heat monitot for 2 weeks,
i knew that they all where mistaking, one because i know my body, second because mi hematologist due to my tallassemia had some test done and concluted that all this was because of my inmune system whent baserk do to the shot, that it will subside on its own'
unfortunatly in california ther is a law, that forces the docotrs to advise them of any patient whom may have an evnt which would put them or others in danger, so i had to abide by theyr actions. which was not cause by my neuro but by a NPR, whom by the california laws are not doctors and cannot issued an opinion on thry own, SO PLEASE MAKE CERTAIN ALL THAT YOU HAVE DIRECT CONTACT WITH YOUR NEUROS UNSTEAD. thus you will avoid complications uneeded.
after i had all the cardio tests i had an extensive talk with the cardiologist in regat of the tests, because in the echo sound cardio. it was discovered a SYNUS RYTHM, wich is part of TAQUICARDIA.
this is the point that i want to explain as i reasearched thoughroly and discused with my cardiologist to the last detail, because is has coreelation also with MG,
Synus Rhitm (is a taquicardia) which is do because of extreme fatigue and stress
i know that all of us because of age ect, are suceptable to have hart related conditions, but please talk to your DOCTORS , also look thru the net for related and expanted explanations, so you can make proper desitions.
AS I AM 100 PERCENT BETTER AND FEEL AS I NEVER FELT IN ABOUT YEARS, I WANT THE MAKE CERTAIN THAT TAKING THE VAX IS PROPER, AND I AM GETTING MY 3RD SOME TIME THIS MONTH.
all this happening was do to my undrestanding and accerted by my cardio, to the proximity in time of the 2 vaccines,
please read, undrestand the content to avoid any troubles. mg and taquicardia seem to have a conection whit each other, be safe , for the ones whom refuse the vax, remenber your family firend and others do the right thing.

thanks
Thank for your request, i will try to make as simple is possible to be understood.
there are 2 components of my blog, one as to do with one harth, the second as to do with mg and the underlying relation
TAQUICARDIA has to do with the harth rate, OVERAL:L normaly max 200 bepm min 5bpm avg 75bpm.
SINUS RHYTM max 119bpm , min 56 bpm, avg 75 bpm.
in both the hart rate is what decide your condition, both mean accelerate reta wich may reach alarming stage.
my range was mn hr of 5bpm, max of 20 bpm and a avg hr of 75bpm, predominant underlying thytm was sinus rhytm.
thos figures apply to a person with hart condition DUE TO STRESS AND FATIGUE,
we mg's in our conditions we have the same condition prevaling, stress and fatigue,
this is the relation and underlying condition beetwen hart problems and mg
this is why i allways reitered the need to fully control stress and fatigue (activities) .
you can found ,ore details on yhe net just type:
taquicardia/ definitons
sinus rhytm/definiton.
also they are planty of axplanation under hart problems/definitions
hope that helps
thanks again and best of luck

Glad you are doing better! It must have been a very worrisome time.
I did a search on myasthenia gravis and heart rhythms and found that in some folks there is a connection, although if I read it correctly, mostly those who have thymomas. It appears that some antibodies in certain folks with MG can attack the heart.
https://myasthenia-gravis.com/heart-disease
Andre reminds us that we should be aware of heart issues and although they may or may not be connected with MG, some simple EKG tests by our doctor can discover if we have them.
The heart has its own pacemaker that sets the rhythm and muscle response of the beats and there are many things that can mess that up making our heart beat irregularly or inefficiently, which can cause problems as Andre had.
And he also reminds us that whatever happens after our vaccination, doctors report it to the adverse events reporting system whether or not it is caused by the vaccine. Then researchers go through the reports and attempt to figure out based on large numbers of reports if they are vaccine related or not. That is why reading the individual adverse events reports is not very valuable, whereas studying the overall reports is. Tying the vaccine to anything that happened in the next few days is not necessarily cause and effect.
If I drive home from my vaccine and am in a car accident, it may be reported, but may be completely unrelated as to cause of the accident. Yet it may be reported in the adverse events to see if 1000s of folks all have accidents after their vaccine.
Good Luck Andre and thanks for the information!

Thanks for your response yuo made it even clearer for all to understand
severe , extreme fatigue, exacerbation are all connected to myasthenia and heart problems, stress and tyredness (fatigue, exarcerbation)
so please be carefull talk tour neuro as well a cardiologist, and as i have tryed for years to advise that the biggest treat when have in mg, is the stress and fatigue and that needs to be controled not to put added stremgth on our heart functionsnothing to do with the meds
besr of luck, be safe
