Myasthenia Gravis by CheckRare Staff| Updated on: Nov 10, 2026

https://checkrare.com/myasthenia-gravis/ Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a chronic autoimmune disease that disrupts communication between nerves and muscles, causing fluctuating weakness that often worsens with activity. It can affect the muscles controlling the eyes, face, speech, swallowing, limbs, and breathing. Although MG can be serious and sometimes life-threatening, treatments can improve muscle function, control autoimmune activity, and help many patients achieve some symptom control. [1–4]
