Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can Imbalance And Weakness In Legs Be A Result Of Myasthenia Gravis Or Neuropathy?
I have had MG for 9 years and I'm 79 years old. It started out as Occular and then generalized. I take 3000 units of Cell cept daily and seem to get along ok , however my balance and weakness in my legs is very disrupting. Sometimes I think I have neuropathy instead of MG even tho I went thru an MG crisis with intebation in 2005. What do you think?
Good day! Myasthenia with such issues are very common. It is myasthenia and muscle wasting and conduction pathways for skeletal muscles are degenerated and autoimmunity victims. you need a neurologist for a further management and work up. good luck
