I was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis in the summer 2010. MG is an autoimmune disease in which the body attacks the receptors on the mussles, limiting the muscles ability to get messages from the brain. This deasease can be mild or debilitating. This is my story as a myasthiniac

So I can't seem to remember to take my medication. I'm on something called Pyridostigmine (Brand name: Mestinon)DUH right? When I was first diagnosed I'd gone to the dr. because I couldn't open my eyes all the way. I looked seriously stoned. Besides that my vision, which is already bad, Got a lot worse. I had double vison and the world was really blury. My medication clears all that up for me, so you'd think i'd remember to take it. But no. I'm sitting here increasing the display size on the computer, squinting at the screen, trying to find the sweet spot on my glasses that will let me focus on the letters. And then I think "oh, I haven't taken my meds." May be I need to set an alarm to remind me like an old lady or something. I wonder if there is an app for that.
