  1. Do you know how old he was when he was diagnosed? My 4 year old daughter was diagnosed in June of this year.

    1. Hello Ashley in my research I was unable to find said information. But I did come upon this: Any One Have A Kiddo With Myasthenia Gravis? - Circle of Moms
      www.circleofmoms.com/...children/any-one-have-a-kiddo-wit... - It appears you are a researcher and may have already found this resource. But if their are any other questions I could answer for you as a patient with Myasthenia Gravis I am more than willing.
