    Myasthenic Crisis Symptoms
    A myasthenic crisis may come on slowly or very quickly. Difficult or labored breathing is the main symptom. You may notice that your breaths are shallow or your muscles seem too weak to move air in and out as you try to breathe.

    Other possible symptoms:

    Saliva builds up in your throat.
    You can’t swallow.
    Jaw or tongue weakness.
    Nasal tone to your voice.<<<<<<<<<< ( I had this happen and didn’t know what was happening.)
    Your airways feel blocked
