I was 69 last year. Had a hip revision in August last year and at the end of September was in the er with a myasthenia crisis. Had never heard of MG. Took them 4 days to diagnose. Couldn’t walk talk swallow or breathe. Coma for a week an intubated 3 month hospital stay. What a journey it has been. Probably 90% recovered. On cellcept and prednisone mestinon occasionally. Turned 70 three days after getting released.
