Description
MG is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease that affects voluntary muscles. Myasthenia gravis means "grave muscle weakness." Symptoms include weakness in muscles that control eye movements and eyelids, chewing, swallowing, coughing, facial expressions, arm and leg movements, and breathing. The prevalence of MG is thought to be much higher than the approximate 20 in every 100,000 affected by the condition. As a rare disease, it is frequently under-diagnosed due to symptoms similar to other disorders.
