Myasthenia Gravis Symptoms and Myasthenic Crisis
A myasthenic crisis occurs when the muscles that control breathing weaken to the point that ventilation is inadequate, creating a medical emergency. In patients whose respiratory muscles are weak, crises may be triggered by infection, fever, an adverse reaction to medication, or emotional stress.
Summary of Myasthenia Gravis Symptoms
Although other health problems can also cause these symptoms, people with possible
myasthenia gravis symptoms should still see a doctor as soon as possible; only a qualified healthcare professional can diagnose and treat the problem.
