A teenager describes his experience being diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis. Taken at the Myasthenia Gravis Association's 1st Annual Walk for MG Awareness in Ottawa, KS.
@Andearea hello, I have mg as well and what your describing may not be mg. when i was very symptomatic i would choke on food because the muscles in my esophogus couldn't push it all the way down, it wasn't in the 'wrong tube' it wouuld just sit in my throat stuck and my diaphram muscles were so weak I couldn't cough to get it out... i basically just had to keep swallowing for minuites untill the food went down.
