Myasthenia Gravis

I have had nuro problems for the last few years and my eye doctor thinks it could be Myasthenia Gravis. I have breathing swallowing issues, numbness in my arms to arms, migraines, double vision when tired, eye lid closes, GI issues and fatigue. My eye doctor did one test with the eye lid and it recovered after two minutes of ice (for awhile) and now order a blood test. Why would an eye doctor know more about Myasthenia Gravis than my other doctors, I been dealing with this down hill battle for years. Yes I have seen Neurologist and GI doctors too.

I developed ocular myasthenia gravis after I finished radiation for my breast cancer. My internist did a blood test to determine my diagnosis. I was active for about a year then remission. I was in remission for about a year and a half. My right eyelid is droopy again. Start medicine and it is manageable. I hope you find an answer soon.
