What Symptoms Are Suggestive Of Having Myasthenia Gravis?

My mother was recently diagnosed with Myesthenia Gravis but after a few weeks the neurologist may be wondering if his initial Dx was wrong and will be starting from scratch to see if he missed something and get heready on the right path. She is on an NG tube and CPAP, very tired and cannot speak. What else should we bexpect looking for?

The main symptom is fluctuating weakness, often subtle, that worsens during the day and after prolonged use of affected muscles, may improve with rest
