RE: That awkward moment when you're new-ish and have to do your intro post again. So here's my norm-accepted intro!

Hi..I can't vote on your post now but here's a delayed WELCOME :)
I don't know much about myasthenia gravis except it's a muscle weakness right? Can you post your experiences and tag it as it is.. Myasthenia Gravis. I've come across it in school and at work but i have no interest in Neuro, i'm mostly cardiac as a nurse. Your posts will be educational if not informative for health professionals as well as patients and their relatives.

    That's alright :) I still appreciate the welcome. Thank you :) Yes, it's a disorder involving muscle weakness. And wow, cardiac nurse! Must be quite toxic considering cardio-related diseases are high up on our country's morbidity list. I'll have to consider posting about MG because the one time I did (on another blogging platform), I had a friend criticize me a bit over how my experience with the disease was depressing. Needless to say, I avoid getting deep into discussing it unless someone explicitly asks me to tell them.

    Thanks for the assurance :) I will try and post something about it next week after another hospital trip. I might have to organize my thoughts/experiences so they're easily understood.

    Depends po on my condition. There were times before that I'd be in a hospital weekly. Like I'd get discharged and then a few days later, I'm at the ER again and ready for admission. January this year, I was there weekly. And nope, I had the pulmo check up just last month for the flu vacc which I was strongly advised to get yearly (I have pneumonia vacc every 3-5 years). This time, it's an overdue follow-up with an oral surgeon. Dapat po nung feb but I frequently had some minor flare ups so both the neuro and pulmo said no muna for any procedures.
