June is Myasthenia Gravis Month

MYASTHENIA  EDUCATION
Myasthenia Gravis can be fatal if a person is in crisis and someone does not recognize it soon enough. In that case, a person might be unable to breathe, or may choke for lack of being able to swallow, for example. But it in no way causes the fatalities that it once did. Today, with the combined knowledge and awareness of the disorder and the success of intervention and various treatments, it is much more manageable and controllable. Most patients can lead nearly full and productive lives.
