Anyone else have myasthenia Gravis also?

Hi.
I was looking for another person that had AS and myasthenia Gravis. The 2 of them are at complete ends of how you should try and live with them. AS you need to move as much as possible. With MG that is the Hallmark of the disease, that the more you use your muscles the weaker they become. To the point of the inability to walk, talk, swallow, and even breathe.
I would like to see if there is anyone with both of them.
Thanks.

  1. I haven’t experienced it. But I do know someone with inflammatory

    1. Thanks! I hope you have an amazing day filled with love, laughter and light! 😊. Deb

      1. Hi. Thanks for your response. I am also plugged into the MG community as well. I am having a hard time finding someone living with both AS and MG. Wanted to trade war stories. ; ). Thanks for the suggestion though. Any and all information does have its place in my file cabinet in my head!!!

        1. Hey! Glad you've found both communities. I'll keep you in mind when I'm bouncing around the community, and I'll connect you with anyone else I find who is living with both conditions. I'm all about swapping war stories so I completely understand. Sending you vibes for some comfort and relief <3 -Anthony

      2. - Hey there! While you wait for others to jump in, I wanted to share that we have a sister community for people living with myasthenia gravis: https://myasthenia-gravis.com/community. They've got a great group of people over there too! Hope this is helpful.
        Sending my best, Anthony (Team Member)
