How do i overcome myasthenia gravis?


i was correctly diagnosed with myasthenia gravis 2 years ago and now i am 24. during my time of suffering, i quit my fulltime job and hope to work at home because the disease take everything from me that i use to be involved in. i cannot speak clearly, look people straight in the eyes, help myself up when i need because everyday i feel so weak and with medicines, it still not really helping. as days gone by, i pity myself with such a low life and low bank account. everything i want to do, i cannot do no more. i was the provider for the family, now i have to watch my dad work day and night trying to find enough money to support a family of 6. i feel so disapointed that i cannot help my family even with a college degree. i was lucky to find a legit work at home job where i can use my skills but it's no use since i feel weak everyday and so i can't really do my job. what should i do to be stronger and able to get rids of this unwanted disease? sorry to share my pity story.

I was diagnosed with Myasthenia gravis in July of 1998 at age 22 so I understand exactly what your going through. What I can tell you is that you have to take care of yourself. My family does not understand at all the weakness I experience or how it feels to not be able to control your body. It can be disheartening but it could always be worse. Remember that it will get you through many a day. You can overcome this setback by thinking positive. You can't control anything but your thoughts so concentrate on seeing yourself healthy and you will be. Also find a neurologist that has some knowledge of Myasthenia gravis. It will get better.

Hi there. I read your story and wanted to give you some hope. First I am going to include a link I found that should help you a bit and then I am going to tell you my story. I am 39 and I have MCTD Along with myositis with Full Body Inclusion. So you and I have some things in common. Muscle Weakness. My disease has no effective cure or treatment, however yours does. You don't mention the type of drugs your doctors have you on or anything, but I would also like to welcome you to an online support group that I am part owner of. We have members with all kinds of autoimmune disorders and we provide a ton of support and lots of laughter as well. It sounds to me you are also very depressed. I would love if you emailed me back so we could talk more. Never be sorry to share a story. Now let me try and help you please. The first link I have given you is the Myasthenia Gravis Fact Sheet and its full of the lastest treatments and how most patients can reach remission plus a ton of more information you might not have. The second link I have provided you is the link to our site. Please feel free to join up. My name is Billie and let me tell you there is no other place where you will find all the support and encouragement you will need and help.

i think this link will be useful for you
