What are the symptoms a person with myashenia gravis experiences?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction

Skeletal muscle weakness is a symptom of myasthenia gravis, an autoimmune, neuromuscular illness that worsens after periods of exercise and improves after periods of rest. Among other body functions, these muscles are responsible for controlling breathing and arm and leg movements. Specific muscles, such as those that control facial expression, eating, talking, and swallowing, as well as eye and eyelid movement, are typically affected by the illness.
