Well it looks unlikely that the shoulder movement is being restricted due to myaesthenia gravis. The movement restriction you are telling looks more due to either ligaments or joint capsule. Shoulder is one of the common joints to be affected due to wrong posture or overuse. Maybe you slept wrong or did some other movement
What I would suggest is to take a short course of anti inflammatory like brufen and do some physiotherapy and avoid sleeping on that side. If it doesn't improve we may need to get an ultrasound done for the shoulder....
hope the information was useful
Do let me know for more queries
