Symptom narrative

Approximately 30 days after receiving the second COVID19 booster I began showing symptoms of weakness in the legs, ptosis and speech difficulties. Initially, my PC diagnosed the condition as Bells Palsy but subsequently referred me to a neurologist who diagnosed me with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis. Subsequent testing conformed the diagnosis.
